A Viterbi/Turbo unified decoder supports both voice and data streams due to the ability of performing Viterbi (convolutional) decoding and Turbo decoding. The Viterbi/Turbo unified decoder of an embodiment reduces the hardware cost by computing path metrics for both Viterbi and Turbo decoding using a single control circuit. The control circuit comprises a plurality of processors and memory banks, and the routing rule for the processors to read/write the path metric information from/to the memory banks are fixed for both Viterbi and Turbo coded inputs.

A wireless remote control system is provided. This system includes a remote controller, plural detectors, and a decision module. The detectors are used for detecting the frequency a wireless signal emitted by the remote controller and respectively generate a detecting result. Based on at least one frequency difference between the detecting results, the decision module determines how the remote controller is moving and thereby generates a control signal. Because the decision module needs no knowledge of the frequency of the emitted wireless signal, the wireless remote controller has the advantages of small size, low cost, and low power consumption.

A series of digit processing units (DPUs) are connected to form a finite impulse response (FIR) filter. Each DPU includes a register, a multiplexer, and a coefficient multiplier. The register stores and delays an input digital signal to be filtered. The multiplexer has inputs connected to the input node and to an output of the register, an output of the multiplexer for connecting to a next stage DPU. The coefficient multiplier is connected to the output of the register and multiplies the input signal by a coefficient or part of a coefficient. A group of DPUs can have multiplexers set so that the register of each DPU stores the same part of the input signal for processing a single filter coefficient. An adder is provided to sum output of the DPUs and output a filtered signal. The critical path of the FIR filter is independent of coefficient number and precision.

A low-power delay buffer circuit is provided, which utilizes a ring counter as address decoder and a latch array for memory. To reduce power consumption, a gated-clock driver tree is applied to the ring-counter addressing architecture. Moreover, a similar gated-driver tree is applied to the input and output ports of the latch array. The delay buffer circuit not only could achieve a power consumption lower than SRAM-based delay buffers, but also could operation under high frequencies and take up less layout area than SRAM-based delay buffers.
