Embodiments of the present invention include programmable filter circuits and methods. In one embodiment, the present invention includes a programmable filter for filtering an input signal x(t) comprising a storage element (401) for storing a plurality of digital values representing a discrete time window function, and a plurality of filter channels, each channel comprising a multiplying digital-to-analog converter (402) having a plurality of digital inputs (N) coupled to the storage element and an analog input for receiving said input signal to be filtered, at least one capacitor (403) having at least one terminal coupled to an output of the multiplying digital-to-analog converter, and a sampling device (404) coupled between the at least one terminal of the at least one capacitor and an output of the filter. In another embodiment, the present invention includes a software defined radio.
摘要:
The object of the present invention is to obtain a charge domain signal filter by composing an digital filter circuit with analog/digital mixed circuit and by introducing the analog processing into the process of multiplication and addition consuming the most of the electric power so as to reduce the total power consumption. The present invention is composed of at least one AD converter; at least one reference charge supply unit; a coefficient supply unit for supplying coefficient signals; a plurality of DA converters acting in a charge domain for receiving digital signal outputs supplied from said AD converter and said coefficient signal supply unit, and for performing the multiplication type DA conversion using, as a reference signal, a reference charge packet generated by said reference charge supply unit; and one circuit of analog shift register composed of N stages of charge transfer devices.

Dans ce filtre comportant N capacités du type MOS disposées sur un même substrat semiconducteur (1) et munies d'électrodes, (14, 15, 18, 19), l'électrode d'une capacité MOS sur deux ayant ses extrémités recouvertes par les extrémités des électrodes des deux capacités MOS adjacentes, les N capacités MOS sont disposées en n rangées, et les sens de transfert de charge dans deux rangées adjacentes sont opposés, ce qui permet de compenser les effets dus aux décalages des masques utilisés pour la fabrication des fitres transversaux à transfert de charge. Application aux filtres transversaux à transfert de charge.
