Abstract

One embodiment of the present invention includes a gating circuit, a demultiplexer, and an integrator. The gating circuit gates an input sample with a first clock, the input sample being clocked by a sampling clock N times faster than the first clock. The demultiplexer demultiplexes the gated input sample to generate in-phase and quadrature samples. The integrator integrates the in-phase and quadrature samples to generate in-phase and quadrature decimated samples corresponding to the in-phase and quadrature samples, respectively. Each of the in-phase and quadrature decimated samples having K bits.
