An area-efficient finite impulse response filter having permuted bit-order functional elements that provide substantially straight and direct interconnects with minimized length between adjacent elements. A functional element is coupled with an input data path and an output data path, at least one of which has a permuted bit-order data path exhibiting bit-order ordinal discontinuity. The permuted bit-order data path also can be a transposed permuted bit-order data path in which the placement of at least part of a data path is transposed, relative to prior art placements. The bit-order ordinal discontinuity fosters short, straight element interconnects which leads to increased spatial efficiency and improved performance.
