I recommend to use the sin90 function instead.

Note that my sin90 and cos90 use the cos45 and sin45 (respectively) to get the desired accuracy above 45 degrees. Then the SIN and COS functions are usually accurate to all 16 bits, and the few times they're off, it's only by one lsb, and even then, it's always in the same direction, ie, high.
