[Editor's note: For an intro to floating-point math, see Tutorial: Floating-point arithmetic on FPGAs. For a comparison of fixed- and floating-point hardware, see Fixed vs. floating point: a ...
Infinite impulse response (IIR) filter implementations can have different forms (direct, standard, ladder, …), different math (fixed-point or floating-point), and different quantization (number of ...
If you are used to writing software for modern machines, you probably don’t think much about computing something like one divided by three. Modern computers handle floating point quite well. However, ...
