Functions

arm_status arm_sqrt_q15 (q15_t in, q15_t *pOut)
 Q15 square root function.
 
arm_status arm_sqrt_q31 (q31_t in, q31_t *pOut)
 Q31 square root function.
 
static __INLINE arm_status arm_sqrt_f32 (float32_t in, float32_t *pOut)
 Floating-point square root function.
 

Description

Computes the square root of a number. There are separate functions for Q15, Q31, and floating-point data types. The square root function is computed using the Newton-Raphson algorithm. This is an iterative algorithm of the form:

     x1 = x0 - f(x0)/f'(x0)

where x1 is the current estimate, x0 is the previous estimate, and f'(x0) is the derivative of f() evaluated at x0. For the square root function, the algorithm reduces to:

    x0 = in/2                         [initial guess]
    x1 = 1/2 * ( x0 + in / x0)        [each iteration]
