Digital signal processors (DSPs) continue to receive a great deal of attention in new product design. For example, digital filter design reflects the importance of understanding and using this ...

Across a range of applications, the two most common functions implemented in FPGA-based high-performance signal processing are finite impulse response (FIR) filters and fast Fourier transforms (FFTs).

There’s an old saying: Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn. I’m guilty of this in a big way — I was never much on classroom learning. But if I build something or ...

The design of finite impulse response (FIR) filters remains a cornerstone of digital signal processing, with ongoing efforts to refine both the algorithmic and hardware aspects of their implementation ...

Compared to their analog counterparts, digital filters offer outstanding performance and flexibility. Designing digital filters can seem a daunting task, however, because of its seemingly endless ...

Digital filters are always an interesting topic, and they are especially attractive with FPGAs. [Pabolo] has been working with them in a series of blog posts. The latest covers an 8th order FIR filter ...

In this paper, we first review in detail the basic building blocks of reconfigurable devices, essentially, the field-programmable gate arrays, then we describes a high-speed, reconfigurable Systolic ...

We’re all familiar with the general idea of a filter: it removes something that we don’t want from something we do want. Coffee filters that pass the liquid coffee but retain the grounds or air ...

Santa Clara, CA USA- January 9, 2011-Tensilica, Inc. today announced the HiFi 3 audio/voice DSP (digital signal processor) IP (intellectual property) core for SOC (system-on-chip) design. This ...

The first part of this series described how data flows through processing steps that create a moving average of stock prices over 65 days. Finite-impulse-response (FIR) filters use the same data-flow ...
