Abstract
This invention is a FFT butterfly circuit. This circuit includes four temporary data registers connected to three memories. The three memories include read/write X and Y memories and a read only twiddle coefficient memory. A multiplier-accumulator forms a product and accumulates the product with one of two accumulator registers. A register file with plural registers is loaded from one of the accumulator registers or the fourth temporary data register. An adder/subtracter forms a selected one of a sum of registers or a difference of registers. A write buffer with two buffers temporarily stores data from the adder/subtracter before storage in the first or second memory. The X and Y memories must be read/write but the twiddle memory may be read only.
