Hi all, Many of you already know this, but it was new information to me. I did more research on the MVME2502 (e500v2) and thought some may benefit. I've learned this does not support subnormal (or denormal) numbers. That may impact your application, either in performance or worse (as I understand), unexpected zero values. Listing [2] section 10.4.2.2 describes the issue. Below is more information on the product line from Artesyn. -Matt ----- The traditional IEEE754 Double Precision Floating Point unit can be found in the following boards:
The MVME2502 has a double precision floating point but it changed with the QorIQ processor cores based on the NXP E500V2 processing cores which are not the IEEE754 format. The MVME2502 may be fine for your application, but you may want to research the specific NXP pages that cover the processors to see what is appropriate for you.
