Table 7-5: ALTFP_MULT Megafunction Parameters
Parameter Name Type Required Description
WIDTH_EXP Integer No Specifies the value of the exponent. If this
parameter is not specified, the default is 8.
The bias of the exponent is always 2
(WIDTH_
EXP - 1)
-1 (that is, 127 for the single-
precision format and 1023 for the double-
precision format). WIDTH_EXP must be 8
for the single-precision format or a
minimum of 11 for the double-precision
format and the single-extended precision
format. WIDTH_EXP must less than WIDTH_
MAN. The sum of WIDTH_EXP and WIDTH_
MAN must be less than 64.
WIDTH_MAN
Integer No Specifies the value of the mantissa. If this
parameter is not specified, the default is
23. When WIDTH_EXP is 8 and the floating-
point format is single-precision, the
WIDTH_MAN value must be 23; otherwise,
the value of WIDTH_MAN must be a
minimum of 31. The WIDTH_MAN value
must always be greater than the WIDTH_
EXP value. The sum of WIDTH_EXP and
WIDTH_MAN must be less than 64.
DEDICATED_MULTIPLIER_ CIRCUITRY String No Specifies whether to use dedicated
multiplier circuitry. Values are AUTO, YES,
or NO. If this parameter is not specified, the
default is AUTO. If a device does not have
dedicated multiplier circuitry, the
DEDICATED_MULTIPLIER_CIRCUITRY
parameter has no effect and defaults to NO.
PIPELINE Integer No Specifies the number of clock cycles
needed to produce the multiplied result.
Values are 5, 6, 10, and 11. If this
parameter is not specified, the default is 5.
ALTFP_MULT Signals
Table 7-6: ALTFP_MULT IP Core Input Signals
Port Name Required Description
clock Yes Clock input to the IP core.
clk_en No Clock enable. Allows multiplication to take place when asserted high.
When signal is asserted low, no multiplication occurs and the outputs
remain unchanged.
