CORDIC: Sine and Cosine Accuracy Measurement

Computation, FPGA / By

Introduction COordinate Rotation DIgital Computer (CORDIC) is an efficient iterative algorithm that uses rotations to compute some elementary functions. The algorithm is based on applying a sequence of rotations that only require additions, subtractions and bit shifts. Here I will present the principles of how the algorithm works, followed by how it is implemented to …

Introduction Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are fascinating integrated circuits (ICs) that just like central processing units (CPUs) can compute, but unlike them, operate in a completely different way. While a CPU implements an algorithm as a sequence of machine instructions, an FPGA implements it as interconnection and configuration of logic elements. Said differently, FPGA programming …
