1.164 and 0.392 are constants.

How can I express them in Binary for using in FPGA?

Thanks.
 

1.164 dec = 1.00101001111110111110011 bin
0.392 dec = 0.01100100010110100001110 bin

I did it with 23 binary digit after binary point and these binary values don´t give you the decimal number exactly (1.16399999708 and 0.39199999720).

if you want to manipulate fixed-point values in FPGA you should check out IEEE.Fixed_Pkg from **broken link removed** it's a proposed implementation of fixed-point arithmetic for next ieee standard in VHDL, the library has some problems compiling under XST (Xilinx ISE, I don't know how 10.1 version of ISE works with this package) but works preaty nice with Precision from Mentor

Thank your reply.

this really helped me.
 

if you doing color space conversion, I would strongly recomend google it for proper constants integer , if you are just looking at Xilinx app notes it is not enough

good lack
