Bit-width allocation has a crucial impact on hardware efficiency and accuracy of fixed-point
arithmetic circuits. This paper introduces a new accuracy-guaranteed word-length …

Linear Time Invariant (LTI) filters are often specified and simulated using high-precision
software, before being implemented in low-precision fixed-point hardware. A problem is that …

The development of hardware platforms for artificial neural networks (ANN) has been
hindered by the high consumption of power and hardware resources. In this paper, we …

Approximate circuit design has gained significance in recent years targeting error-tolerant
applications. In the literature, there have been several attempts at optimizing the number of …

In this paper we target the Fixed-Point (FxP) implementation of Linear Time-Invariant (LTI)
filters evaluated with statespace equations. We assume that wordlengths are fixed and that …

Fixed-point arithmetic datapaths with heterogeneous scaling and wordlengths are
commonplace in resource, latency, or power constrained designs. This paper describes and …

Bitwidth optimization of FPGA datapaths can save hardware resources by choosing the
fewest number of bits required for each datapath variable to achieve a desired quality of …

In floating-point arithmetic, a desirable property of computations is to be accurate, since in
many industrial context small or large perturbations due to round-off errors may cause …

L'évolution des technologies des circuits intégrés permet d'implanter au sein des systemes
embarqués de nouvelles applications, plus complexes, pour le traitement du signal, de …

Electronics industry has attained huge development in last few decades due to the rapid
increase in system design applications. With the growth of very large scale integration (VLSI) …
