Circuitry for deriving a range-reduced value of an angle represented by a number having a mantissa and an exponent includes memory that stores a table that identifies, for each one of a plurality of values of the exponent, a base fractional rotation associated with said one of said plurality of values of said exponent, and an incremental fractional rotation associated with each increment of said mantissa. The circuitry further includes a multiplier that multiplies the mantissa by the incremental fractional rotation to provide a product representing a mantissa contribution. An adder adds the base fractional rotation to any fractional portion of the mantissa contribution. The fractional portion of the result of that addition represents the range-reduced angle. That representation can be multiplied by a constant representing one complete rotation in a desired angular measurement system, to convert that representation to a value representing the range-reduced angle in that measurement system.
