An average computer user speeds up the applications by over twenty times and
slashes the energy use to less than 5% if decimal hardware units are employed.
Interest in decimal arithmetic increased considerably in
recent years. This IP family presents new designs for decimal
floating point (DFP) addition, multiplication, fused multiply-add,
division, and square root. It stresses the importance
of energy savings achieved by hardware implementations
of the IEEE 754-2008 standard for decimal floating point.
SilMinds is the first company worldwide to
discuss energy savings in DFP and the first to present
a hardware implementation of a fused multiply-add. Our
Newton-Raphson based divider is over three times faster
than the similar design previously reported.
A small presentation for the decimal technology may be downloaded from here |
