From the project
Development of coprocessor.
Hardware-verified on an Alinx AXU3EG board (Zynq UltraScale+ ZU3EG) via the AXI4-Lite wrapper at 100 MHz bus / 50 MHz FPU, with end-to-end tests covering arithmetic, transcendental, exponential, and logarithmic operations.
Non-incremental synthesis + implementation, Vivado 2025.2, xc7a200tfbg676-1. Date: 2026-03-27. 50 MHz target clock. MC68882 mode enabled (fpuversiong => FPU68882). Includes FPSP-derived EXP 2^(J/64) decomposition with minimax degree-6 polynomial (EXPTBL 64-entry BRAM), LOG reciprocal table (avoids FP division), TWOTOX/TENTOX direct reduction, table-assisted ATAN/LOG…
