PURPOSE: A method and an apparatus for performing multiplicative functions are provided to reduce standby time thereof by removing reciprocal calculation. CONSTITUTION: A computing system(100) comprises one or more processors(110) coupled to a system interconnect(115). The processor has multiple or many processing cores. The computing system also includes a chipset(130) coupled to the system interconnect. The chipset includes one or more integrated circuit packages or chips. Chipset comprises one or more device interfaces(135) to support data transfers to and/or from other components(160) of the computing system such as, for example, keyboards, mice, network interfaces, etc. The device interface is coupled with other components through a bus(165). The chipset is coupled to a PCI(Peripheral Component Interconnect) bus(185). The chipset includes a PCI bridge(145) that provides an interface to the PCI bus. The PCI Bridge provides a data path between the processor as well as other components, and peripheral devices such as, for example, an audio device(180). Other devices are also coupled to the PCI bus. |
