Abstract
A multiplexed filter bank having a digital by analog multiplier for weighting sampled input signals by digital constants is disclosed. The digital constants are stored and sequenced to the multiplier by a programmable read only memory.
Claims9
A multiplexed recursive filter, comprising
- an analog delay line having a plurality of data sampling stages including input and output stages,
- means to transfer serially a predetermined number of discrete voltage samples through the delay line stages from the input to the output stages within one of repetitive predetermined time periods,
- means including digital storage and sequencing means to store and output a number of predetermined constants,
- means including analog by digital multiplication means to weigh each of the discrete voltage samples with one of said predetermined constants serially within each one of said repetitive time periods to produce weighted voltage samples, and
- demultiplexing means to output each one of the weighted voltage samples on a separate channel.

A multiplexed recursive filter, comprising
- at least two charge coupled devices, each having a plurality of data sampling stages including an input stage for receiving voltage samples and an output data sampling stage, the output stage of one said devices being connected to the input stage of the other;
- a plurality of programmable read only memory devices, each operative to store and sequence at its respective output a plurality of constants in binary form;
- an analog by digital multiplier for each of the memory devices having its digital input electrically coupled to the output of a respective memory device, each said multiplier having an input and output connected electrically to predetermined ones of said input and output stages;
- means to clock the read only memory devices and the charge coupled devices to weight each of the voltage samples at predetermined input and output stages by predetermined ones of said constants in the multiplying devices during each one of repetitive periods;
- and
- demultiplexing means to apply each of the weighted samples to an industrial output during each repetitive time period.
