Abstract

A preloaded digital filter algorithm for filtering the output signal of a Germanium gamma ray detector was implemented on a XC4000 device using the XBLOX software from Xilinx. A system frequency of 20 MHz was achieved due to multiple pipeline stages and extensive usage of the high speed carry paths. This paper describes author's experiences gained using XBLOX intensively. The strong and weak points of the tool will be discussed.
