Hardware-aware Design of Multiplierless Second-Order IIR Filters with Minimum Adders
Résumé
In this work we optimally solve the problem of multiplierless design of second-order Infinite Impulse Response filters with minimum number of adders. Given a frequency specification, we design a stable direct form filter with hardware-aware fixed-point coefficients where all multiplications are replaced by bit shifts and additions. The coefficient design, quantization and implementation, typically conducted independently, are now gathered into one global optimization problem, modeled through integer linear programming and efficiently solved using generic solvers. The optimal filters are implemented within the FloPoCo IP core generator and synthesized for field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) \added{and application specific integrated circuits (ASICs). With respect to state-of-the-art three-step filter design methods, our one-step design approach achieves, on average, 48% reduction in number of lookup tables, 27% delay reduction and 57% reduction in power on FPGAs. ASICs experiment illustrate similar \48% reduction in circuit area, 27% delay reduction and 65% power reduction for a 14nm ASIC.
