Re: Division in Fixed Point
Randy Yates - 2005-12-15 17:31:00
Yes, you're absolutely right about this, Tim. I chose to do it this
way on my DM642 project since I don't yet know the architecture
of this machine very well and, being a parallel machine it's a lot
more difficult to pick up than, e.g., the TMS32054x. The routine
is also invoked at a very low ra...

Bob - 2003-06-24 19:05:00
Hello,
I have constructed a 256 pt complex fft. My scaling is causing
problems as the outputs from each stage are divided by 4 to avoid
overflow. The input data and the twiddle factor coeffs are 16 bits
wide (Q15). My problem is that when the data arrives at the last two
butterfly stages of t...Fixed Point Arithmetic resources

Nick ELLIOTT - 2003-06-25 21:12:00
My application is going to need a bit of fixed point, a bit of floating
point calculations.
Any advice as to whether a 720MHz fixed point processor (TI C64x) executing
floating point libraries, can compete with a 225MHz floating point processor
(TI C67x) ?

Plz, can anyone differentiate between the two so that a layman can

That's that I already know. Your algorithm is about to change gain too
often, there should be some highmark and lowmark levels. The problem

Randy Yates - 2005-12-09 10:35:00
Hi,
In a nutshell you divide the integer value of (e.g.) 8192 by 2^b,
where b is the "scaling" of the fixed-point value. In your case, b
must be 13 since 2^13 = 8192 and 8192/8192 = 1.0.
In the second example, the scaling of the value is still apparently
13, since -16385/2^13 = -2.00012207,...Fixed Point Library for Simulation?
