    Hi all.

    As known, TMS320C6678 can support fixed and floating point operation. Now in my application, the data type is integral or floating point single precision. I wonder in the data operation  whether the floating point will be converted to fixed point. I know this process will take some time which is not needed in my application. Thanks in advance.

    Conversions between types will not occur unless required by the C/C++ language standards.  Give a specific example, and I'll tell you whether any conversions occur.

    Thanks and regards,
