Subject: Re: [oc] How to convert integer to single precision floating point
The easest way is to copy the 32-bit number into the Mantissa (the number
part) and then set the exponent to 32. The resultant number is not
normalized but this should not present you with a problem. On next
compuation the result will be normalized. If there is a possibility that
this technique would result in a roundoff error (it shouldn't as there is no
real fraction) then processing section (in the C code that may be running
inside or outside your FPGA) do something seemingly benign
float result = *yourFPresult + 0.;
Requires compiler optimizatons are off.
