Abstract
A floating point arithmetic apparatus for converting numbers between an integer format and a floating point format, wherein a conversion operation requires a greater data path width than a conversion operation. The apparatus comprises right shift circuitry that receives a number in the floating point format, wherein the right shift circuitry includes additional register positions to accommodate a shift beyond a data path width required by an arithmetic operation.
