does anybody know where to find some FAST sine routines to be run on an 8052? sdcc's math.h is just an empty file... just an #error directive! thank you in advance.

How much accuracy and precision do you need? The fastest approach would be a look-up table. -- Jack Klein Home: http://JK-Technology.Com FAQs for comp.lang.c http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/C-faq/top.html comp.lang.c++ http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/ alt.comp.lang.learn.c-c++ http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu/~ajo/docs/FAQ-acllc.html

Any floating point is hideously slow on that platform, I know, I've used it a few times. -- Jack Klein Home: http://JK-Technology.Com FAQs for comp.lang.c http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/C-faq/top.html comp.lang.c++ http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/ alt.comp.lang.learn.c-c++ http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu/~ajo/docs/FAQ-acllc.html

And if your angles are small you can get away with a limited number of terms, depending on the required precision. You may do it with integer math and the approprate scaling. For example, for small angles, sin(x)=x (in radians) The next refinement: sin(x) = x - x*x /2 For angles below 1 radian this may be sufficient. Wim

Any floating point is > hideously slow on that platform, I know, I've used it a few times.I was thinking of some Tchebychev polynomials or ratio of polynomials I used 25 years ago for 4.5 digit accuracy. I have the source somewhere for the 8080 code I developed for them, which took about 10 millisec on a 2 Mhz 8080, as I recall. Floating multiply was in the order of 300 uSec. and divide headed for 1 millisec. -- Chuck F (cbfalconer@yahoo.com) (cbfalconer@worldnet.att.net) Available for consulting/temporary embedded and systems. <http://cbfalconer.home.att.net> USE worldnet address!

The fastest way to calculate sines is table lookup and interpolation. Also think 'octents' rather than quadrants to preserve accuracy. -- Regards, Albert ---------------------------------------------------------------------- AM Research, Inc.

All of the processing was performed in integer math except the final division. Accuracy was pretty good and the code was completely portable (the application wasn't for an 8052). -- Morris Dovey West Des Moines, Iowa USA C links at http://www.iedu.com/c Read my lips: The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Any floating point is >hideously slow on that platform, I know, I've used it a few times.If only sin/cos is required (and not tan), then why use floating point numbers in the first place. Use some fixed point format e.g. the decimal point to the _left_ of the most significant bit or two bits for the integer part and 30 bits for the decimal part, thus avoiding any normalisation and denormalisation required by floating point additions. The fixed point arithmetic can be done with integer hardware, but some rounding due to discarded low order decimal bits must be done after multiplication and some shifts with a predetermined number of bits may be required if the number of integer bits is something else than 0 or 8. The polynomial method is just an refined table look up with some multiplications and additions. The quadrant (0..90 degrees) is divided into a few ranges and the polynomial coefficients are extracted from the table. A fourth order polynomial is usually sufficient for single precision accuracy, while 6-8 order is required for double precision. By dividing the quadrant into a larger number of ranges, a lower order polynomial can be used. Paul

what i need to do is to generate a custom-frequency sine wave to be outputted at CD-quality frequency (44100 samples/second) to a DAC. If possible i'd prefer working with 16 bit integers since float needs cpu-time-expensive libraries. thanks to all of you for your replies.
