Status: | 32-bit 8.24 feature complete. |
Description: | Fixed point library |
Maintainer: | https://github.com/henkmuller |
This is a library of functions that implement standard mathematical functions in fixed point. One group of functions use a "8.24" fixed point format with 24 bits behind the binary point, and 8 bits before the binary point. Numbers are represented in 2's complement. Another group works on unsigned integers
More details to follow in the doc directory.
- 8.24 signed fixed point:
- basic functions: mul, div, sqrt
- emulation of manipulation of exponent and mantissa: ldexp, frexp
- trigonometric functions: sin, cos
- exponential functions: exp, log, sinh, cosh
- test harness that checks on precision against double precision C.
- 32.0 unsigned fiex point:
- sqrt
- Get size and speed into test harness.
- Make 64 bit version, probably 16.48 (blocked by lack of long long in XC)
- Run minimiser over errors in order to improve coefficients for our domain.
- Add other mathematical functions (atan2, errf etc)
- Add optional check on overflows (with a compile time flag for code that has size constraints)
- Add optional check on domain errors, eg. sqrt(-1)
A collection of functions, all stored in a single module. The function
names are suffixed with f8_24
to denote that these are single precision
fixed point functions. There are some obvious dependencies, mostly on ldexp
and frexp.
Two extra functions, mulf8_24 and divf8_24 perform multiplication and division on fixed point numbers.
A single function to compute sqrt
none
