Texas Instruments’ new TMS320F2833x DSCs (digital-signal controllers) integrate a 32-bit floating-point unit that performs 300 MFLOPS (million floating point operations per second) with a 150-MHz ...

Most of the algorithms implemented in FPGAs used to be fixed-point. Floating-point operations are useful for computations involving large dynamic range, but they require significantly more resources ...

This article explains the basics of floating-point arithmetic, how floating-point units (FPUs) work, and how to use FPGAs for easy, low-cost floating-point processing. Inside microprocessors, numbers ...

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 ...

Essentially all AI training is done with 32-bit floating point. But doing AI inference with 32-bit floating point is expensive, power-hungry and slow. And quantizing models for 8-bit-integer, which is ...

We've rounded up some of the best (and still affordable) products for you to get the most bang for your buck. Read now Encoding has always been part of digital audio. Lossless formats encode ...

The shift to larger data words and higher sampling rates in audio applications is creating challenges for the audio developer. Here’s some advice on how to deal with the transition. The demand for ...
