3.5.9. Floating Point Unit
Each CPU in the Arm* Cortex-A53 MPCore processor includes full support for IEEE-754 floating point vector operations.
The floating-point unit (FPU) can execute half-, single-, and double-precision variants of the following operations:
- Add
- Subtract
- Multiply
- Divide
- Multiply and accumulate (MAC)
- Square root
The FPU also converts between floating-point data formats and integers, including special operations to round towards zero required by high-level languages.
