resolution that would practically justify the need for
an 80-dB attenuation. An optimally-factored IFIR design of this filter is shown in Fig. 10(a), based on the
optimal factoring technique [46], [47], [57], [58] where
the factored cascade structure can easily be pipelined
[46]. Each stage in the optimally-factored cascade is
followed by a power-of-two scaling and a truncation
(or rounding) to efficiently manage the wordlength of

the data path [46]. The bound in (11), the solid line in Fig. 11
when min ^d p, d s h = 0.0001 , predicts that a practical
realization of this FIR filter requires a minimum of approximately 3860 flip-flops and full adders, using a = 1
in (11). The gray area in Fig. 11 again indicates the region that is predicted to be practically unreachable, or
quite unlikely to be realizable (especially for the denser gray areas) when the target has min ^d p, d s h = 0.0001.
