32-512 Point Streaming FFT Core

Overview

The FFT1-32-512/4 core implements 32, 64, 128, 256, and 512 point FFT and IFFT in hardware that runs at the clock frequency four times higher than the input sampling frequency.

Memory Interface

The core requires four “duplex” memories (dual-port memories with one write and one read port). The depth of each memory is ½ of the maximum data block (256) and the width is one sample (for example, with 24-bit I and Q, each memory will be 256x48 bits).

Function Description

FFT1-32-512/4 can process single stream of 32/64/128/256/512 point FFT/IFFT with input and output data in natural order.

The FFT or IFFT radix operations start when START input is sampled high. The core will start reading the input data, asserting the READ signal each time it reads the data. The FFT data output will be streamed out after fixed latency. The core will indicate data output by asserting the WRITE output.

Core will continue to operate on incoming data stream block of 32/64/128/256/512 samples each while the START signal is high.

SCALE input allows setting of the inter-stage scaling for each of the 9 radix-2 FFT stages. A bit value of 1 in position N indicates that the input data of the stage N are scaled by a factor of 2.
