Floating-point values contain three fields: a sign bit, exponent bits, and significand or mantissa bits. The IEEE-754 floating-point number format defined a common floating-point format that most ...

As more applications become more compute-intensive, a seeming detail—the way the application represents numbers internally—can make or break a project. This is no news for experienced digital signal ...

[Editor's note: For an intro to fixed-point math, see Fixed-Point DSP and Algorithm Implementation. For a comparison of fixed- and floating-point hardware, see Fixed vs. floating point: a surprisingly ...

As defined by the IEEE 754 standard, floating-point values are represented in three fields: a significand or mantissa, a sign bit for the significand and an exponent field. The exponent is a biased ...

The uM-FPU64 floating point coprocessor chip provides support for IEEE 754-compatible, 64-bit floating point and integer calculations, expanded digital I/O, and analog input capabilities as well as ...

Because so many microcontrollers now include a floating-point unit (FPU) that performs math operations, engineers can tackle a wider range of applications that rely on precise values for control ...

Here we provide rational for using Centar’s floating-point IP core for the new Altera Arria 10 and Stratix 10 FPGA platforms. After a short contextual discussion section, a comparison of various FFT ...

Petabytes of data efficiently travels between edge devices and data centers for processing and computing of AI functions. Accurate and optimized hardware implementations of functions offload many ...
