Abstract
The embodiment of the invention discloses a fixed point and floating point converter, a processor, a method and a storage medium. The fixed point and floating point converter can be embedded in a cloud server to improve the conversion speed of a fixed point and a floating point in the cloud server. An input module inputs target fixed point data into a left search module and a right search module;the left search module starts from the decimal point position of the target fixed point data and performs integer preamble value search along the integer direction; the rightward search module startsfrom the decimal point position and carries out decimal leading value search along the decimal direction; if the integer preamble value is found by the left search module, a floating point module acquires a first exponential deviation value, and generates floating point data according to the sign bit of the target fixed point data and the first exponential deviation value; and if the integer preamble value is not found, the floating point module acquires a second exponential offset value, and generates floating point data according to the sign bit and the second exponential offset value. By adopting the converter and the method, the universality of conversion from the fixed-point data into the floating-point data can be improved.
