Hi there

Is there anyway to increase the accuracy of the $bitstoreal and
$realtobits function?

I am finding that 64 bits is not sufficient for what I need.

Cheers

These use the accuracy of the underlying floating point represen-
tation (C double) for the system you are using. It is tied to the
implementation of "real" that your Verilog compiler is using, so
it makes no sense to change the "accuracy" of $bitstoreal--it is
already perfect accuracy, given the implementation of "real" on
your compiler.
