An Enhancement of Decimation Process using Fast Cascaded Integrator Comb (CIC) Filter

The over sampling technique has been shown to increase the SNR and is used in many high performance system such as in the ADC for audio and DAT systems. This paper presents the design of the decimation and its VLSI implementation which is the sub-component in the over sampling technique. The design of three main units in the decimation stage that is the Cascaded Integrator Comb (CIC) filter, the associated half band filters and the droop correction are also described. The Verilog HDL code in Xilinx ISE environment has been derived to describe the CIC filter properties and downloaded in to Virtex II FPGA board. In the design of these units, we focus on the trade-off between the speed improvement and the power consumption as well as the silicon area for the chip implementation

Pipelined Two-Operand Modular Adders

Pipelined two-operand modular adder (TOMA) is one of basic components used in digital signal processing (DSP) systems that use the residue number system (RNS). Such modular adders are used in binary/residue and residue/binary converters, residue multipliers and scalers as well as within residue processing channels. The design of pipelined TOMAs is usually obtained by inserting an appriopriate number of latch layers inside a nonpipelined TOMA structure. Hence their area is also determined by the number of latches and the delay by the number of latch layers. In this paper we propose a new pipelined TOMA that is based on a new TOMA, that has the smaller area and smaller delay than other known structures. Comparisons are made using data from the very large scale of integration (VLSI) standard cell library

Pipelined Hogenauer Cic Filters Using Field-Programmable Logic And Residue Number System

Field-Programmable Logic (FPL) is on the verge of revolutionizing digital signal processing (DSP) in the manner that programmable DSP microprocessors did nearly two decades ago. While FPL densities and performance have steadily improved to the point where some DSP solutions can be integrated into a single FPL chip, they still have limited use in high-precision high-bandwidth applications. In this paper it is shown that in such cases, the residue number system (RNS) can be an enabling technology. The design of a high-decimation rate digital filter is presented which demonstrates the RNS-FPL synergy
