(Not-a-Number) .. modes .. operations .. conversions .. and exception handling .. 123 STM32 Cortex -M Floating - point unit (FPU) .. operating modes .. status and control register (FPSCR) .. condition bits: N, Z, C, V.
accelerated using a Floating-point unit (FPU) integrated in the processor. 1.1 Fixed-point or floating-point One alternative to floating-point is fixed-point, where the exponent field is fixed. But if fixed-point is giving better calculation speed on FPU-less processors, the range of numbers and their dynamic is low.
