LOG POINT ANNOUNCES NEW SPEED RECORDS FOR COMPUTATIONS ON LOW COST EMBEDDED MICROPROCESSORS.Log Point Technologies, Inc., a California-based computer-related technology corporation ("Log Point")(OTCBB OTCBB See OTC Bulletin Board (OTCBB). :LGPT LGPT Laser Gated and Pumped Thyristor ) has announced new extensions to its line of high performance, high reliability, software mathematical function A rule for creating a set of new values from an existing set; for example, the function f(x) = 2x creates a set of even numbers (if x is a whole number). libraries for execution on embedded microprocessors and related new extensions to its line of high performance, high reliability, mathematical function microcircuit A miniaturized, electronic circuit, such as is found on an integrated circuit. See chip and MCM. designs. Both product lines are licensed for distribution in volume manufacture electronic products. The new extensions include patented ultra high speed look-up table-based generators for scientific and engineering functions such as reciprocal, square root, logarithmic logarithmic pertaining to logarithm. logarithmic relationship when the logs of two variables plotted against each other create a straight line. , exponential, and trigonometric functions. These new function generator designs need no explicit multiplication operations, so they perform as well on the lowest cost, highest volume, embedded systems possessing no hardware multiplier as on more expensive ones that do. "Our function generators offer Log Point's customers new world record speed by a wide margin, because usual methods for computing such functions take 20 to 50 or more times longer, which is a versatile competitive edge that is permanent because the new software and hardware designs amplify any future speedup made to their hardware," said Lester Pickett, Chief Technologist of Log Point. |
