T07 - LTI Filter Design and Implementation 101
Presenter:Andrew Stanford-Jason, XMOS Ltd. - Bristol, UK
LTI filter design is a well documented process but the implementation specifics are rarely covered. In this workshop we will cover how to realize a filter from its specification to the instructions that will execute. We will work through a PDM to PCM conversion example covering how to partition the decimation process to maximize the performance of your hardware while achieving your desired filter performance. The intention is to clearly illustrate the trade-offs a designer has to consider that are typically outside of the specification, how to test for them and how to control them.
Topics include: • Filter design basics: from filter specification to realization; • Designing for floating and fixed point arithmetic; • Optimizing for your hardware; • Characterizing your filter: theory and testing; • Decimation/Interpolation: polyphase filters; • Frequency domain implementation; • Example: PDM to PCM conversion.
