Abstract

A digital image processor is provided. The digital image processor includes a shift register having a number of serially connected registers. The shift register is receptive to an image data word signal and has a plurality of taps. A coefficient store provides a number of quantized coefficients in which the number of coefficients stored corresponds to an integer multiple of the taps. A number of multipliers are provided, each having a first input coupled to a tap of the shift register and having a second input coupled to the coefficient store to receive a coefficient to provide a number of multiplied output. An adder is coupled to the multiplied outputs, wherein the adder generates a filtered and scaled image data output signal.
