Coordinate Rotation Digital Computer Algorithm: Design and Architectures

COordinate Rotation DIgital Computer (CORDIC) algorithm has potential for efficient and low-cost implementation of a large class of applications which include the generation of trigonometric, logarithmic and transcendental elementary functions, complex number multiplication, matrix inversion, solution of linear systems and general scientific computation. This paper presents a brief overview of the developments in the CORDIC algorithm and its architectures.
