Fixed-point Configurable Hardware Components for Adaptive Filters

Romuald Rocher, Nicolas Hervé, Daniel Ménard, Olivier Sentieys · 2006

To reduce the gap between the VLSI technology capability and the designer productivity, design reuse based on IP (intellectual properties) is commonly used. In terms of arithmetic accuracy, the generated architecture can generally only be configured through the input and output word-lengths. In this paper, a new kind of fixed-point arithmetic IP is presented through the LMS and delayed-LMS examples. The operator and memory word-lengths are optimized under an accuracy constraint defined by the user. To significantly reduce the optimization and design times, the architecture parameter determination is based on analytical approach
