Abstract
This paper describes a single unified algorithm for the calculation of elementary functions including multiplication, division, sin, cos, tan, arctan, sinh, cosh, tanh, arctanh, In, exp and square-root The basis for the algorithm is coordinate rotation in a linear, circular, or hyperbolic coordinate system depending on which function is to be calculated The only operations required are shifting, adding, subtracting and the recall of prestored constants The limited domain of convergence of the algorithm is calculated, leading to a discussion of the modifications required to extend the domain for floating point calculations

A novel rotational VLSI architecture based on extended elementary angle set CORDIC algorithm

TL;DR: The proposed EEAS scheme provides a more flexible way of decomposing the target rotation angle in CORDIC operation, and its quantization error performance is better than the AR technique, and an improved scaling operation is proposed, called Extended Type-II (ET-II) scaling operation, as the scaling scheme for the EEAS-based CORDic algorithm.
