In an effort to reduce the area and design complexity, a method for designing an FIR filter as a tapped cascaded interconnection of identical subfilters is modified. The proposed subfilter structure further minimizes the arithmetic number. Experimental results show that the proposed interpolator achieves the design specification,exhibiting high performance and hardware efficiency,and also has good noise rejection capability. The interpolation filter can be applied to a delta-sigma DAC and is fully functional.展开更多

It consumes no static power, and its maximum output power is 436mW with an 8Ω load. Its output dynamic range exceeds 100dB. The circuit is implemented with a TSMC 0. 18μm process. The die area is 0. 28mme. The supply voltage is 1. gV for the digital part and 3.3V for class D.展开更多
