Generally, this disclosure describes a method and apparatus for reduced memory footprint fast Fourier transforms (FFTs). An apparatus may include intermediate factor circuitry configured to generate an intermediate factors vector including a number of intermediate factors in response to a request to generate an FFT of an N-point input data set, N composite, wherein N is equal to a product of a number of nonunity integer factors, the number of intermediate factors is related to the nonunity integer factors of N and the number of intermediate factors is less than N. The apparatus may include intermediate result circuitry configured to reconstruct a subset of twiddle factors based at least in part on an element by element product of a first subset of the intermediate factors vector and a complex conjugate of a second subset of the intermediate factors vector, wherein the twiddle factors are complex roots of unity.
