1.2. FFT IP Core Features

  • Bit-accurate MATLAB models
  • Variable streaming FFT:
    • Single-precision floating-point or fixed-point representation
    • Radix-4, mixed radix-4/2 implementations (for floating-point FFT), and radix-22 single delay feedback implementation (for fixed-point FFT)
    • Input and output orders: natural order, or digit-reversed, and DC-centered (-N/2 to N/2)
    • Reduced memory requirements
    • Support for 8 to 32-bit data and twiddle width (foxed-point FFTs)
  • Fixed transform size FFT that implements block floating-point FFTs and maintains the maximum dynamic range of data during processing (not for variable streaming FFTs)
    • Multiple I/O data flow options: streaming, buffered burst, and burst
    • Uses embedded memory
    • Maximum system clock frequency more than 300 MHz
    • Optimized to use Stratix series DSP blocks and TriMatrix memory
    • High throughput quad-output radix 4 FFT engine
    • Support for multiple single-output and quad-output engines in parallel
  • User control over optimization in DSP blocks or in speed in Stratix V devices, for streaming, buffered burst, burst, and variable streaming fixed-point FFTs
  • Avalon Streaming (Avalon-ST) compliant input and output interfaces
  • Parameterization-specific VHDL and Verilog HDL testbench generation
  • Transform direction (FFT/IFFT) specifiable on a per-block basis
