Abstract
A transversal filter circuit comprises a plurality of delay units, a plurality of multiplexers and a plurality of full adders. The plurality of delay units is coupled in series to delay a two-bit input signal. The plurality of multiplexers is coupled to the plurality of delay units in a one-to-one manner, and outputs zero, a data signal, or the inverse of the data signal according to the output signals of the plurality of delay units. The plurality of full adders accumulates the outputs of the plurality of multiplexers and the MSB of the outputs of the plurality of the delay units.
