A Digital Down Converter (DDC) is presented based on square wave local oscillators facilitating a multiplier-less implementation with no constraints on the sampling frequency. The DDC includes a pseudo multi-rate SINC low pass filter which exhibits better performance compared to the standard multi-stage sinc filter. The pseudo multi-rate SINC filter can be implemented with a unique cascaded integrator comb (CIC) filter to obtain the same improved performance. A 90nm CMOS design with 8 bit inputs clocked at 400MHz demonstrates a flexible, very low power/size DDC architecture for single chip digital receiver applications.
