So my question is: is our proposed chip P1788 compliant? Provided that we do everything in software, I cannot see why it should not be. Am I missing something?



We currently have no specification that requires anything be done in hardware. Indeed, nor does 754-2008 have any such mandate. Thus, your proposed chip would be neither compliant nor non-compliant. A software system built for it may be compliant or non-compliant, depending on the attributes of that system. (People, please correct
me if I am wrong.)
