摘要:
Disclosed is an interlaced serial-parallel-serial (SPS) charge coupled device (CCD) memory with improved clocking. By performing the interlacing as well as the serial-parallel-serial function with only seven clock pulses, less metallurgy and consequently less space per bit on a semiconductor chip is required. By reducing the number of clock requirements, the supporting logic circuitry is simplified permitting a larger portion of the semiconductor chip area to be used for data bit storage.
摘要:
A charge coupled device analog multiplier is used to weigh the sampled and delayed signals for a transversal filter. The digital filter coefficients for the analog multiplier can be electrically programmed and therefore dynamic time-varying systems, such as matched filters, can be designed with reduced circuit complexity. The digital filter includes means for sampling without destroying an analog signal at various points and providing voltages proportional to each sampled signal. The voltages are separately applied to a charge coupled device analog multiplier which accepts the voltages and provides means for multiplying the digital filter coefficient by the analog voltage. The multiplied sample signal is then dumped into a means for summing all of the weighted sample signals to produce an analog signal modified by the digital filter coefficients.
