Abstract
An embodiment circuit comprises a plurality of processing units, a plurality of data memory banks configured to store data, and a plurality of coefficient memory banks configured to store twiddle factors for fast Fourier transform processing. The processing units are configured to fetch, at each of the FFT computation stages, input data from the data memory banks with a burst read memory transaction, fetch, at each of the FFT computation cycles, different twiddle factors in a respective set of the twiddle factors from different coefficient memory banks of the coefficient memory banks, process the input data and the set of twiddle factors to generate output data, and store, at each of the FFT computation stages, the output data into the data memory banks with a burst write memory transaction.
