16 years ago --- Quote Start --- Your work-around of 9 bits shift then taking 16 LSBs doesn't make sense to me. --- Quote End --- This does not makes sense to me, too. That's why I'm not happy with this solution. --- Quote Start --- To avoid calculation problems of software Let us go back to your simple example: You said for your input sine of 30146 amplitude you get fft output as: Real: 3384 (0x0D38) Imaginary: -14391 (0xC7C9) fair enough. what is your exponent value in above example? It should be -1 so that output scales to 2^ -(-1) = 2 otherwise there is something wrong. --- Quote End --- The exponent within this example is -10. Yes, there seems to be something wrong, but what is the question.
