Abstract
With reference to a method and circuit arrangements, it is described how, using the Chebyshev polynomials, frequency multipliers as well as sine/cosine generators can be constructed in a general-purpose manner, i.e., circuits that are frequently required in telecommunications engineering. A number of Chebyshev modules and various multipliers and adders are realized in an integrated circuit which then carries out a wide range of different functions depending on the external wiring. Disclosed as further functions which can easily be technically realized with such a chip are the synthesis of any desired functions by representing the function by means of a Chebyshev series and the use of Tn(x) as an amplifier with the amplification factor n for sin(nx)≈nx, and odd n.
