This paper presents an architecture and a synthesis method for programmable numerical function generators (NFGs) of trigonometric functions, logarithm functions, square root, reciprocal, etc. Our architecture partitions a given domain of function into non-uniform segments using an LUT (Look-Up Table) cascade, and approximates the given function by a linear polynomail for each segment. Thus, our architecture can implement fast and compact NFGs for a wide range of functions. We have developed a synthesis system for NFGs that converts MATLAB-like specification into HDL code. We show and compare three architectures implemented as a FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array). Experimental results show the efficiency of our architecture and synthesis system. |
