Ashish Raman, Vignesh.V, Deepti Kakkar . ASIC Implementation of a High Speed, Low Area Reconfigurable Decimation Filter. International Journal of Computer Applications. 34, 4 ( November 2011), 45-50. DOI=10.5120/4089-5898
Decimation filter is used to reduce the sampling rate for succeeding stages of an oversampling ADC. The speed of a successive-approximation ADC predominately depends on the decimator speed. This necessitates a need to design a high speed decimation filter to improve the overall system performance. A reconfigurable architecture is applied for the design of decimator to serve this purpose. Results show that delay of a Reconfigurable Decimator is reduced by 29.74% compared to a Normal Decimation filter. The Number of Slices and 4 Input LUTs are reduced by 6% and 7% each, which reduces the Area.
