Binary/Analog CCD Correlator Development.

Abstract

The architecture, design and performance of a general purpose, 1,024-stage, programmable transversal filter implemented in CCD/NMOS technology is described. The device features programmability of the reference signal, the filter length and weighting coefficient resolution. Off-ship circuitry is minimized by incorporating both analog and digital support circuitry, on-chip. This results in a monolithic analog signal processing system that has the flexibility to be operated in nine programmable configurations, from 1,024-stages by 1-bit, to 128-stages by 8-bits. The versatility of the device makes it suitable for a wide range of applications, from matched filtering with chirp signals and very long binary sequences, to image correlation and adaptive filtering.
