1FPGA Implementation of Sine and Cosine Generators Using the CORDIC Algorithm

Abstract: This paper is concerned with FPGA implementation of CORDIC schemes for fast and silicon area efficient computation of the sine and cosine functions. The results of theoretical investigation into redundant CORDIC are presented. Summary of CORDIC synthesis results based on Actel and XILINX FPGAs is given. Finally applications of CORDIC sine and cosine generators in small satellites are discussed
