VLSI implementation of digital fourier transforms

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6730217
The construction of Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) processors is discussed. Pipeline and parallel-pipeline organizations are developed and are shown to meet the constraints imposed by VLSI. Various circuit technologies for the construction of these processors are compared, and the description of a set of NMOS chips are given. A technique for reducing the latency of the adders internal to the chips is also presented. Finally, a broad set of possible FFT organizations is discussed.
