Abstract

This paper presents a filter bank designed for the multi-channel audio equalizer. A time-shared multiplier is also proposed to implement the equalizer with a minimum number of gates when it is synthesized with ASIC or FPGA. Further reduction of the number of required gates is achieved by designing the multiplier based on a cascaded sequential circuit utilizing partial multiplications. The equalizer is realized with FPGA and its real-time operation verifies the reliability and high fidelity of the designed system.
