Digital signal processing circuit blocks with support for systolic finite-impulse-response digital filtering

摘要

Digital signal processing ("DSP") block circuitry on an integrated circuit ("IC") is adapted for use (e.g., in multiple instances of the DSP block circuitry on the IC) for implementing finite-impulse-response ("FIR") digital filters in systolic form. Each DSP block may include (1) first and second multiplier circuitry and (2) adder circuitry for adding (a) outputs of the multipliers and (b) signals chained in from a first other instance of the DSP block circuitry. Systolic delay circuitry is provided for either the outputs of the first multiplier (upstream from the adder) or at least one of the sets of inputs to the first multiplier. Additional systolic delay circuitry is provided for outputs of the adder, which are chained out to a second other instance of the DSP block circuitry.
