  • Abstract
    A generic large-coupled device (CCD) signal processor that performs 2.8-billion computations per second with a 10-MHz clock rate is described. The device´s concept, design, operation, performance, and applications are reviewed. A dynamic range greater than 42 dB has been demonstrated by the device. This processor can be used as a one-dimensional correlator, a two-dimensional matched filter or a two-layer neural net device. The device demonstrates the flexibility and computational power that is possible using CCD technology
