What are Digital Filters?
Digital filters that incorporate digital-signal-processing (DSP) techniques have received a great deal of attention in technical literature in recent years. Although they rarely serve as anti-aliasing filters (in fact, they need anti-aliasing filters), digital filters merit discussion here because digital filters offer features that have no counterparts in other filter technologies. You can do things utilizing digital filters (unlimited flexibility) that may not be possible in the analog world.
DSP represent a growing subset of signal-processing activities that utilize an A/D converter to turn an analog signal into a stream of digital data. An extensive sequence of multiplication's and additions then operate on those data. In some cases, a D/A converter creates an analog equivalent signal at the output of the processed stream. DSP techniques can perform functions such as fast-Fourier transform (FFT), delay equalization, programmable gain, modulation, encoding/decoding, and digital filtering. Figure 1 shows a typical digital filter configuration.
