I am looking for coefficients (floating point) for 5th degree chebyshev sine/cosine function. Could any body help me with this. Purpose is to implement custom trig function in a microcontroller
Well... maybe that's a stretch. I don't think I can recommend anything to help you win friends. Not my forte. But I am going to try to convince you why you should know about Chebyshev...

I think the values you need are about half way down the page
Also look at a CORDIC implementation. It is probably better than polynomial implementations in small microcontrollers, especially if multiplication (with the required precision) can't be done in hardware.
