High bandwidth evaluation of elementary functions

Among the requirements currently being imposed on high-performance digital computers to an increasing extent are the high-bandwidth computations of elementary functions, which are relatively time-consuming procedures when conducted in software. In this paper, we elaborate on a technique for computing piecewise quadratric approximations to many elementary functions. This method permits the effective use of large RAMs or ROMs and parallel multipliers for rapidly generating single-precision floating-point function values (e.g., 30–45 bits of fraction, with current RAM and ROM technology). The technique, based on the use of Taylor series, may be readily pipelined. Its use for calculating values for floating-point reciprocal, square root, sine, cosine, arctangent, logarithm, exponential and error functions is discussed.
