Abstract

A novel power aware accuracy-guaranteed fractional bit-widths optimization scheme for floating-point to fixed-point transformation of DSP algorithms is presented in this paper. Quantization-Operation-Error (QOE) model is used to construct the worst case quantization error propagation. Based on QOE, a power reduction technique is proposed to dynamically reduce switching activities in multipliers, without sacrificing required accuracy at output. The power save is nearly free.
