Abstract :
After a brief survey of the CORDIC algorithm, some new results that allow fast and easy signed-digit implementation of CORDIC, without modifying the basic iteration step are given. A slight modification would make it possible to use a carry-save representation of numbers, instead of a signed-digit one. The method, called the branching CORDIC method, consists of performing in parallel two classic CORDIC rotations. It gives a constant normalization factor. An online implementation of the algorithm is proposed with an online delay equal to 5 for the sine and cosine functions
