Floating Point using AN974 with MC9S12A256 - ga5941 - Apr 30 18:49:41 2009
Earlier I reported a problem(16296)using AN974, MC68HC11 Floating Point Package by Gordon
Doughman. I'm now happy to report that I have resolved the problem and it wasn't with
AN974. My floating point calculations in assembly code are working correctly including
trig functions. The package, however, does not include an Arctan function. I have written
my own, in assembly of course, using the Cordic algorithm. The Arctan function is
necessary for converting celestial coordinates RA and DEC to earth based coordinates ALT
and AZ.
A reply to my original note suggested a possible difference between HC11 and HC12 regarding stack operations but I have found none when using AN974.
Thanks to all that replied.

Re: Floating Point using AN974 with MC9S12A256 - David Armstrong - May 1 0:21:00 2009
If you have a working version of the AN974 Floating point code, why not
share it with the rest of the community here? I'm sure there are several
individuals that would like to see and use it.

After extensive search of Freescale files, I found the AN974/D document. It is type .pdf, 745 KB. You can download it from:
http://www.freescale.com/files/microcontrollers/doc/app_note/AN974.pdf?fpsp=1&WT_TYPE=Application%20Notes&WT_VENDOR=FREESCALE&WT_FILE_FORMAT=pdf&WT_ASSET=Documentation
It was located with the application notes for the MC68HC11 micros. I did not find the actual software file itself though it is listed in the AN974/D document. The actual code file is about 2 KB. I do not have my own website but can send it in an e-mail as a file attachment to someone who maintains a website. Any volunteers?
The routine for Arctan(X) that I wrote in assembly code also includes Arcsin(X) and Arccos(X) and runs 249 bytes. To obtain a proper understanding of it one should also read this paper:
http://www.andraka.com/files/crdcsrvy.pdf
and another that I downloaded from the internet but is no longer accessible. This one runs about 48 Kb.
I would be happy to help anyone who needs this material. Perhaps it could be done through this 68HC12 Yahoo group through the file system.
I don't know how to use the file system, perhaps someone could walk me through it. My email addr is g...@yahoo.com

Another very good resource is the "CORDIC Algorithm Simulation Code"
from Dr. Dobbs Journal issue #ddj9010 which is copied in many places on
the net. It is an excellent ansi C implementation of cordic written
back in 92 by P. Knoppers.
