Abstract

In this paper we propose two new design techniques for floating point arithmetic units used in DSP applications, and apply them in the design of two multi-operand units for high-radix FFTs. These two multi-operand arithmetic units are a Modified two term Dot Product (MDP) unit and a Multi-operand Add-Sub unit (MAS). A radix-4 FFT butterfly computation block is implemented efficiently with these multi-operand units. Synthesis results show that the butterfly unit built with our design is about 43% faster and 9.5% smaller than a conventional implementation.
