sin16_C()

LIB8STATIC int16_t sin16_C

(

uint16_t

theta

)

Fast 16-bit approximation of sin(x).

This approximation never varies more than 0.69% from the floating point value you'd get by doing

float s = sin(x) * 32767.0;

Parameters

theta

input angle from 0-65535

Returns

sin of theta, value between -32767 to 32767.
