Whiteboard Wednesdays - Why Is More Floating-Point Computation Required by DSP Applications?

28 Sep 2016 • Less than one minute read
Why is more floating-point computation required by DSP applications? More and more DSP applications use algorithms that are best realized using floating-point arithmetic. In this Whiteboard Wednesday video, the first of a two-part series, we talk about how this need for floating-point computations spans different market segments: from low-compute applications in wearables processing to high-compute applications in communications and vision processing.
