A CAD environnnent for digital filters using a VerilogHDL based functional bit-serial compiler

1998-12-16
This paper reports the development of a highly integrated CAD environment for area efficient implementation of digital filters using commercially available CAD tools. The environment establishes a plain interface between CADENCE (an IC design framework), MATLAB (a mathematical computation tool), and BITMAP (a new custom-developed filter compiler). The new compiler allows the functional description of the target filter in the Verilog hardware description language (VerilogHDL), generating technology independent and retargetable digital filters in the bit-serial architecture. This integrated design environment shortens the implementation time, reduces the number of gates, and minimizes the overall filter area. The CAD environment and the new functional compiler have been used to implement a mixed-signal ASIC chip with thirteen digital IIR and FIR filters, three pairs of over sampled A/D and D/A converters, parallel port and I/sup 2/C type microprocessor interfaces, and a number of analog interface circuits. The chip occupies an 81 mm/sup 2/ area in a 0.7 /spl mu/m CMOS technology.

A NOVEL METHOD FOR DISCRETE COEFFICIENT FIR DIGITAL FILTER DESIGN
Çiloğlu, Tolga (1994-06-02)
A local search algorithm for discrete coefficient FIR filter design is presented. The minmax objective function is minimized by moving along the low gradient directions. A new method to forecast these directions is proposed. The algorithm is suitable to design high order filters in a short time. The results are compared to other methods both in quality and computational load

This paper presents a high performance, automatic mode-matched, single-mass, and fully-decoupled MEMS gyroscope with improved scale factor stability. The mode-matching system automatically achieves and maintains the matching between the drive and sense mode resonance frequencies with the help of dedicated frequency tuning electrodes (FTEs). This method isolates the drive and sense mode frequency response dynamics by keeping the proof mass voltage (V PM ) constant, improving the scale factor stability up to ...
