That is the shape of the 4-stage decimating CIC filter in the FPGA. For now, sample at 2X or 4X the desired band width and then process using the host processor. Half band filters are on the way to help correct this problem. On Mon, 18 Apr 2005, Lamar Owen wrote: > Anyone have any idea why

Hi Matt, I came up with the same diagram with a few difference. Could you confirm them ? - the cordic stage in TX chain is disable (V0.8) - DA converter can work at 128MS/s but the txsync is muxing at 32MS/s for each channel Thanks, cheers Damien On 4/19/05, Matt Ettus <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote

Anyone have any idea why the noise floor baselines would be curved? Attached is a png of an example. I would have expected it to be flatter. -- Lamar Owen Director of Information Technology Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute 1 PARI Drive Rosman, NC 28772 (828)862-5554 www.pari.edu <>__

Dear all, I am trying to understand exactly what kind of SP is going on the Rx and Tx path of the FPGA and basic Rx/Tx. I am attaching an eps file (and an xfig file) with a hypothesized block diagram that is the result of all the information I have collected on the website and the discussions. Can
