Description
SIN IN, OUT
The sine (SIN), cosine (COS), and tangent (TAN) instructions evaluate the trigo-
nometric function of the angle value IN and place the result in OUT. The input
angle value is measured in radians.
• SIN (IN) = OUT
• COS (IN) = OUT
• TAN (IN) = OUT
To convert an angle from degrees to radians: Use the MUL_R (*R) instruction to
multiply the angle in degrees by 1.745329E-2 (approximately by π/180).
For the numeric functions instructions, SM1.1 is used to indicate overflow errors
and illegal values. If SM1.1 is set, then the status of SM1.0 and SM1.2 is not
valid and the original input operands are not altered. If SM1.1 is not set, then the
math operation has completed with a valid result and SM1.0 and SM1.2 contain
valid status.
