In this paper, an efficient hardware architecture is proposed for $32{\times}32$ inverse transform HEVC decoder. HEVC is a new image compression standard to deal with much larger image sizes compared with conventional image codecs, such as 4k, 8k images. To process huge image data effectively, it adopts various new block structures. Theses blocks consists of $4{\times}4$, $8{\times}8$, $16{\times}16$, and $32{\times}32$ block. This paper suggests an effective structures to process $32{\times}32$ inverse transform. This structure of inverse transform adopts the decomposed $16{\times}16$ matrixes of $32{\times}32$ matrix, and simplified the operations by implementing multiplying with shifters and adders. Additionally the operations frequency is downed by using multicycle paths. Also this structure can be easily adopted to a multi-size transform or a forward transform block in HEVC codec.

The design of error correction code with low complexity has a good attraction for next generation multi-level cell flash memory. Sharing sub-expressions is effective method to reduce complexity and chip size. This paper proposes a new design method of m-bit parallel BCH encoder based on serial linear feedback shift register structure with low complexity using sub-expression. In addition, general algorithm for obtaining the sub-expression is introduced. The sub-expression can be expressed by matrix operation between sub-matrix of generator matrix and sum of two different variables. The number of the sub-expression is restricted by. The obtained sub-expressions can be shared for implementation of different m-parallel BCH encoder. This paper is not focused on solving a problem (delay) induced by numerous fan-out, but complexity reduction, expecially the number of gates.

In this paper, the residual delay compensation algorithm is proposed for FX-type KJJVC. In case of initial version as that design algorithm of KJJVC, the integer calculation and the cos/sin table for the phase compensation coefficient were introduced in order to speed up of calculation. The mismatch between data timing and residual delay phase and also between bit-jump and residual delay phase were found and fixed. In final design of KJJVC residual delay compensation algorithm, the initialization problem on the rotation memory of residual delay compensation was found when the residual delay compensated value was applied to FFT-segment, and this problem is also fixed by modifying the FPGA code. Using the proposed residual delay compensation algorithm, the band shape of cross power spectrum becomes flat, which means there is no significant loss over the whole bandwidth. To verify the effectiveness of proposed residual delay compensation algorithm, we conducted the correlation experiments for real observation data using the simulator and KJJVC. We confirmed that the designed residual delay compensation algorithm is well applied in KJJVC, and the signal to noise ratio increases by about 8%.

Digital decimation filter is inevitable in oversampled sigma-delta A/D converters for the sake of reducing the oversampled rate to Nyquist rate. This paper presented a Verilog-HDL design and implementation of an area-efficient digital decimation filter that provides time-to-market advantage for sigma-delta analog-to-digital converters. The digital decimation filter consists of CIC(cascaded integrator-comb) filter and two cascaded half-band FIR filters. A CSD(canonical signed digit) representation of filter coefficients is used to minimize area and reduce in hardware complexity of multiplication arithmetic. Coefficient multiplications are implemented by using shifters and adders. This three-stage decimation filter is fabricated in $0.25-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology and incorporates $1.36mm^2$ of active area, shows 4.4 mW power consumption at clock rate of 2.8224 MHz. Measured results show that this digital decimation filter is suitable for digital audio decimation filters.
