Automatic implementation of FIR filters on field programmable gate arrays
S. Mohanakrishnan, Joseph Evans · IEEE Signal Processing Letters · 1995
This letter describes a CAD system for automatic implementation of FIR filters on Xilinx field programmable gate arrays (FPGA). Given the frequency specifications, this software package designs an FIR filter, optimizes the filter coefficients in the power of two coefficient space, and implements it on FPGA chips. The FPGA specific mapping techniques used to increase speed are discussed. The performance of the typical filters that were implemented is presented.>
