Abstract. This paper presents a new scheme for the hardware evaluation of elementary functions, based on a piecewise second order minimax approximation. The novelty is that this ev...
We present a new micro-architecture for evaluating functions based on piecewise quadratic interpolation. The micro-architecture consists mainly of a look-up table and two multiply...
This paper presents parameterized module-generators for pipelined function evaluation using lookup tables, adders, shifters and multipliers. We discuss trade-offs involved between...
