| Abstract | FPGA devices are now more capable at supporting floating point applications, but double precision IEEE754 systems are still very challenging to implement, with large amounts of logic, routing, and DSP resources needed. Double precision multiplier operators, requiring 54x54 multiplier cores, are now directly supported in the fabric, however, multiplier based algorithms for algebraic and elementary functions typically require larger multiplier functions, typically in excess of 60x60 bits precision. This paper will use the example of a double precision exp (ex) to explore tradeoffs with multiplier architectures mapped to current FPGAs devices. Different types of the larger multiplier architectures, including direct implementations and Karatsuba-Ofman algorithms will be compared, including their effect on the resource requirements and system performance of the exp function. Smaller multiplier architectures, which introduce a small maximum functional error, will also be examined. Alternate large multiplier architectures can provide the same accuracy with increased system performance, with up to 33% less multiplier resources. Smaller multiplier will reduce the multiplier resources by up to 50%, albeit with a small maximum error, in the range of 5 ulp. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
