Abstract In this paper, a novel architecture of a floating-point digital signal processor is presented. It introduces a single hardware structure with a full set of elementary arithmetic functions which includessin, cos, tan, arctanh, circular rotation andvectoring, sinh, cosh, tanh, arctanh, hyperbolic rotation andvectoring, square root, logarithm, exponential as well asaddition, multiplication anddivision. The architecture of the processor is based on the COordinate Rotation DIgital Computer (CORDIC) and the Convergence Computing Method (CCM) algorithms for computing arithmetic functions and it is fully parallel and pipelined. Its advanced functionality is achieved without significant increase in hardware, in comparison to ordinary CORDIC processor, and makes it an ideal processing element in high speed multiprocessor applications, e.g. real time Digital Signal Processing (DSP) and computer graphics.
