#include "fir_sr_sym_graph.hpp"

Overview

fir_sr_sym is a Symmetrical Single Rate FIR filter

These are the templates to configure the Symmetric Single Rate FIR class.

Parameters:

TT_DATA	describes the type of individual data samples input to and output from the filter function. This is a typename and must be one of the following: int16, cint16, int32, cint32, float, cfloat.
TT_COEFF	describes the type of individual coefficients of the filter taps. It must be one of the same set of types listed for TT_DATA and must also satisfy the following rules: Complex types are only supported when TT_DATA is also complex. TT_COEFF must be an integer type if TT_DATA is an integer type TT_COEFF must be a float type if TT_DATA is a float type.
TP_FIR_LEN	is an unsigned integer which describes the number of taps in the filter.
TP_SHIFT	describes power of 2 shift down applied to the accumulation of FIR terms before output. TP_SHIFT must be in the range 0 to 61.
TP_RND	describes the selection of rounding to be applied during the shift down stage of processing. Although, TP_RND accepts unsigned integer values descriptive macros are recommended where rnd_floor = Truncate LSB, always round down (towards negative infinity). rnd_ceil = Always round up (towards positive infinity). rnd_sym_floor = Truncate LSB, always round towards 0. rnd_sym_ceil = Always round up towards infinity. rnd_pos_inf = Round halfway towards positive infinity. rnd_neg_inf = Round halfway towards negative infinity. rnd_sym_inf = Round halfway towards infinity (away from zero). rnd_sym_zero = Round halfway towards zero (away from infinity). rnd_conv_even = Round halfway towards nearest even number. rnd_conv_odd = Round halfway towards nearest odd number. No rounding is performed on ceil or floor mode variants. Other modes round to the nearest integer. They differ only in how they round for values of 0.5. Note: Rounding modes `rnd_sym_floor` and `rnd_sym_ceil` are only supported on AIE-ML device.
TP_INPUT_WINDOW_VSIZE	describes the number of samples processed by the graph in a single iteration run. When TP_API is set to 0, samples are buffered and stored in a ping-pong window buffer mapped onto Memory Group banks. As a results, maximum number of samples processed by the graph is limited by the size of Memory Group. When TP_API is set to 1 and TP_SSR is set to 1, incoming samples are buffered in a similar manner. When TP_API is set to 1 and TP_SSR > 1, samples are processed directly from the stream inputs and no buffering takes place. In such case, maximum number of samples processed by the graph is limited to 32-bit value (4.294B samples per iteration). Note: For SSR configurations (TP_SSR>1), the input data must be split over multiple ports, where each successive sample is sent to a different input port in a round-robin fashion. As a results, each SSR input path will process a fraction of the frame defined by the TP_INPUT_WINDOW_VSIZE. The number of values in the output window will be TP_INPUT_WINDOW_VSIZE also by virtue the single rate nature of this function. Note: Margin size should not be included in TP_INPUT_WINDOW_VSIZE.
TP_CASC_LEN	describes the number of AIE processors to split the operation over. This allows resource to be traded for higher performance. TP_CASC_LEN must be in the range 1 (default) to 40.
TP_DUAL_IP	allows 2 input ports to be connected to FIR, increasing available throughput. Depending on TP_API, additional input ports functionality differs. If TP_API is set to use windows, then TP_DUAL_IP is an implementation trade-off between performance and data bank resource. When TP_DUAL_IP is set to 0, the FIR performance may be limited by load contention. When TP_DUAL_IP is set to 1, two ram banks are used for input. If TP_API is set to use streams, then: When TP_DUAL_IP is set to 0, single stream will be connected as FIRs input. When TP_DUAL_IP is set to 1, two stream inputs will be connected. In such case data should be organized in 128-bit interleaved pattern, e.g.: samples 0-3 to be sent over stream0 for cint16 data type, samples 4-7 to be sent over stream1 for cint16 data type.
TP_USE_COEFF_RELOAD	allows the user to select if runtime coefficient reloading should be used. When defining the parameter: 0 = static coefficients, defined in filter constructor, 1 = reloadable coefficients, passed as argument to runtime function. Note: when used, async port: `port_conditional_array<input, (TP_USE_COEFF_RELOAD == 1), TP_SSR> coeff;` will be added to the FIR. Note: the size of the port array is equal to the total number of output paths (TP_SSR). Each port should contain the same taps array content, i.e. each additional port must be a duplicate of the coefficient array.
TP_NUM_OUTPUTS	sets the number of ports over which the output is sent. This can be 1 or 2. It is set to 1 by default. Depending on TP_API, additional output ports functionality differs. For Windows API, additional output provides flexibility in connecting FIR output with multiple destinations. Additional output `out2` is an exact copy of the data of the output port `out` . With Stream API, the additional output port increases the FIR’s throughput. Data is sent in a 128-bit interleaved pattern, e.g. : samples 0-3 is sent over stream0 for cint16 data type, samples 4-7 is sent over stream1 for cint16 data type. Note: when used, optional port: `port<output> out2;` will be added to the FIR.
TP_API	specifies if the output interface should be window-based or stream-based. The values supported are 0 (window API) or 1 (stream API). Note: due to the data buffering requirement imposed through symmetry, input interface is always set to window. Auto-infeffed DMA stream-to-window conversion is applied when FIR is connected with an input stream.
TP_SSR	specifies the number of parallel input/output paths where samples are interleaved between paths, giving an overall higher throughput. A TP_SSR of 1 means just one output leg and 1 input phase, and is the backwards compatible option. The number of AIEs used is given by `TP_SSR^2 * TP_CASC_LEN` .
TP_SAT	describes the selection of saturation to be applied during the shift down stage of processing. TP_SAT accepts unsigned integer values, where: 0: none = No saturation is performed and the value is truncated on the MSB side. 1: saturate = Default. Saturation rounds an n-bit signed value in the range [- ( 2^(n-1) ) : +2^(n-1) - 1 ]. 3: symmetric = Controls symmetric saturation. Symmetric saturation rounds an n-bit signed value in the range [- ( 2^(n-1) -1 ) : +2^(n-1) - 1 ].

Fields

kernel m_firKernels [TP_CASC_LEN *TP_SSR *TP_SSR]

The array of kernels that will be created and mapped onto AIE tiles. Number of kernels ( TP_CASC_LEN * TP_SSR ) will be connected with each other by cascade interface.

port_array <input, TP_SSR> in

The input data to the function. This input is either a window API of samples of TT_DATA type or stream API (depending on TP_API). Note: Margin is added internally to the graph, when connecting input port with kernel port. Therefore, margin should not be added when connecting graph to a higher level design unit. Margin size (in Bytes) equals to TP_FIR_LEN rounded up to a nearest multiple of 32 bytes.

port_array <output, TP_SSR> out

The output data from the function. This output is either a window API of samples of TT_DATA type or stream API (depending on TP_API). Number of output samples is determined by interpolation & decimation factors (if present).

port_conditional_array <input, (TP_DUAL_IP==1), TP_SSR> in2

The conditional input array data to the function. This input is (generated when TP_DUAL_IP == 1) either a window API of samples of TT_DATA type or stream API (depending on TP_API).

port_conditional_array <input, (TP_USE_COEFF_RELOAD==1), TP_SSR> coeff

The conditional array of input async ports used to pass run-time programmable (RTP) coeficients. This port_conditional_array is (generated when TP_USE_COEFF_RELOAD == 1) an array of input ports, which size is defined by TP_SSR. Each port in the array holds a duplicate of the coefficient array, required to connect to each SSR input path. Size of the coefficient array is dependent on the TP_SSR.

When TP_SSR = 1, the taps array must be supplied in a compressed form, i.e.

taps[] = {c0, c2, c4, …, cN} where

N = (TP_FIR_LEN+1)/2.

For example, a 7-tap halfband decimator might use coeffs (1, 2, 3, 5, 3, 2, 1).

This would be input as coeff[]= {1,2,3,5}.
When TP_SSR > 1, the taps array must be uncompressed and symmetry must be removed. For example, a 7-tap halfband decimator might use coeffs (1, 2, 3, 5, 3, 2, 1).

This would be input as coeff[]= {1,2,3,5,3,2,1}.

port_conditional_array <output, (TP_NUM_OUTPUTS==2), TP_SSR> out2

The output data from the function. This output is (generated when TP_NUM_OUTPUTS == 2) either a window API of samples of TT_DATA type or stream API (depending on TP_API). Number of output samples is determined by interpolation & decimation factors (if present).
