Meanwhile, advancements in semiconductor technology now support the integration of hundreds of floating-point units on a single chip, enabling more resource-intensive computations. CuFP, an HLS library, facilitates the creation of customized floating-point operators with configurable exponent and mantissa bit widths, providing greater flexibility and resource efficiency. This paper introduces the integration of the self-alignment technique (SAT) into the CuFP library, extending its capability for customized addition-related floating-point operations with enhanced precision and resource utilization. Our findings demonstrate that incorporating SAT into CuFP enables the efficient FPGA deployment of complex floating-point operators, achieving significant reductions in computational latency and improved resource efficiency. Specifically, for a vector size of 64, CuFPSAF reduces execution cycles by 29.4% compared to CuFP and by 81.5% compared to vendor IP while maintaining the same DSP utilization as CuFP and reducing it by 59.7% compared to vendor IP. These results highlight the efficiency of SAT in FPGA-based floating-point computations.","url_abs":"https://www.mdpi.com/2073-431X/14/4/118","url_pdf":"https://www.mdpi.com/2073-431X/14/4/118","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"enhancing-cufp-library-with-self-alignment","repo_url":"https://github.com/FahimeHajizadeh/Custom-Float-HLS","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"high-level-synthesis","task_name":"High-Level Synthesis"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
