  • Abstract
    This paper proposes an area efficient signal processing architecture to perform IDDT test calibration through vector multiplication. The design follows the Field Programmable Array organization, and capitalizes on the unique behavior of binary encoded signals to implement compact multiply elements. Vectors with 8 bit values were multiplied at a rate of 300 kHz, independently of vector size.
