A very versatile algorithm for the design of finite-wordlength filters is described. It is a simulated annealing algorithm, derived directly from the simulated annealing algorithm for functions of continuous variables which searches over discrete values of the filter coefficients. It has very fast development time and produces filters with good performances. Its only drawback is a very long execution time. Three examples of filter design are included.>
