LSI module for the implementation of digital filters
J.G.M. Goncalves, R.M. Lea · IEE Proceedings F Communications Radar and Signal Processing · 1981
Real-time signal processing applications are stimulating LSI chip designs for cost-effective digital filter implementations. One such device, the microprogrammable arithmetic element (MAE), is considered and its potential as a building block for different filter implementations is discussed. Direct-form and cascade MAE implementations of FIR and IIR filters are described and compared in terms of bandwidth, cost and chip efficiency.
