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

Redundant Cordic rotator based on parallel prediction

TL;DR: A Cordic rotator based on the prediction of all the coefficients into which the rotation angle is decomposed is presented, using carry-save arithmetic and the resulting architecture can be highly pipelined and consequently appropriate for applications where high speeds are required.
