<p>SH2E, SH3E and SH4 groups have on-chip floating-point unit (FPU). Other
SH groups can use <code>.float</code> directive to generate <small>IEEE</small>
floating-point numbers.
</p>
<p>SH2E and SH3E support single-precision floating point calculations as
well as entirely PCAPI compatible emulation of double-precision
floating point calculations. SH2E and SH3E instructions are a subset of
the floating point calculations conforming to the IEEE754 standard.
</p>
<p>In addition to single-precision and double-precision floating-point
operation capability, the on-chip FPU of SH4 has a 128-bit graphic
engine that enables 32-bit floating-point data to be processed 128
bits at a time. It also supports 4 * 4 array operations and inner
product operations. Also, a superscalar architecture is employed that
enables simultaneous execution of two instructions (including FPU
instructions), providing performance of up to twice that of
conventional architectures at the same frequency.
