Abstract

The implementation of finite impulse response (FIR) digital filters using pipelined bit-serial arithmetic and canonic signed digit (CSD) coefficient coding can be an effective use of hardware resources. However, the necessary time alignment of all data and control signals can be a tedious process. A methodology for implementing FIR filters using pipelined bit-serial arithmetic and field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) is described.

This work was supported in part by funding from the National Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada and Micronet, A Canadian Network of Centres of Excellence.
