An automated floating-point to fixed-point conversion methodology
Changchun Shi, R.W. Brodersen · 2003 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 2003. Proceedings. (ICASSP '03). · 2003
We propose a floating-point to fixed-point conversion (FFC) methodology for digital VLSI signal processing systems. The past techniques used to facilitate FFC are first reviewed, followed by a description based on a statistical approach and global optimization which allows a high degree of automation.
