Abstract

In this paper we present the implementation of a 16-point (I)FFT ((Inverse) Fast Fourier Transform) with 24-bit complex data precision suitable for OFDM applications. The die measures 3.2×3.3 mm² and is fabricated in double metal 0.7 μm ES2 CMOS technology. Our algorithm does not use any multiplier allowing a throughput up to 85 MWord/s and reducing the core area to less than 5 mm². It is also possible to implement a 256-point (I)FFT using two 16-point devices and a complex multiplier
