Abstract

This paper describes fused floating point add–subtract operations and which is applied to the implementation of fast fourier transform (FFT) processors. The fused operations of an add–subtract unit which can be used both radix-2 and radix-4 butterflies are implemented efficiently with the two fused floating point operations. When placed and routed using a high-performance standard cell technology, the fused FFT butterflies are about may be work fast and gives user-defined facility to modify the butterfly’s structure. Also the numerical results of the fused implementations are more accurate, as they use rounding modes is defined as per user requirement.
