Abstract

A general purpose interpolator-decimator circuit for increasing or decreasing the sampling rate of a digital signal by a factor L/M, where L and M are integers, is disclosed. The circuit includes means for determining each output sample by multiplying a sequence of previous input samples by a set of coefficients and accumulating the resulting products. L sets of coefficients, in which each coefficient is a function of the factors L and M, are stored in a specific sequence which permits sequential addressing of both the coefficients and input signal samples. A multistage decimator cascaded with a multistage interpolator to effect a narrow-band FIR filter is also disclosed.
