Taking Advantage of Advances in FPGA Floating-Point IP Cores - Many complex systems in communications, military, medical, and other applications are first simulated or modeled using floating-point data processing, using C or MATLAB software. However, final implementation is nearly always performed using fixed-point or integer arithmetic. The algorithms are carefully mapped into a limited dynamic range, and scaled through each function in the datapath - 2009-10-30
