  • Patent number: 9509283
    Abstract: Disclosed is an interpolation filter based on time assignment algorithm. An interpolation filter comprises an enable signal generating part generating enable signals for operation of the interpolation filter, an input value generating part generating input values, a first calculating part generating a first output value based on a first enable signal and a first input value, a second calculating part generating a second output value based on a second enable signal and a second input value, and an output value selecting part selecting a final output value among the first output value and the second output value. Thus, continuity of output data can be guaranteed, and hardware can be shared by using time assignment algorithm so that a total size of the interpolation filter can be reduced.

  • Patent number: 9379886
    Abstract: A sample rate converter and a method of converting a sample rate are disclosed herein. The sample rate converter includes a data delay unit, a clock rate conversion unit, a Lagrange polynomial filter unit, a resample position calculation unit, and a resample position compensation unit. The data delay unit delays signals in response to an input clock signal. The clock rate conversion unit converts the sample rate of the signals. The Lagrange polynomial filter unit performs a filtering function on the signals whose rate has been converted. The resample position calculation unit outputs the value (Dint, dfrac) of the resample position of the signals based on a set resample ratio value. The resample position compensation unit corrects the error value of the signals by applying the value (Dint, dfrac) to the signals, and outputs a final signal.
