摘要	This paper presents a high throughput size-configurable floating point (FP) Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) processor, having implemented the 8-parallel multi-path delay feedback (MDF) functions suitable for applications in the real-time radar imaging system. With regard to floating-point FFT design, to acquire a high throughput with restricted area and power consumptions poses as a greater challenge due to some higher degrees of complexity involved in realizing of FP operations than those fixed-point counterparts. To address the related issues, a novel mixed-radix FFT algorithm featuring the single-sided binary-tree decomposition strategy is proposed aiming at effectively containing the complexity of multiplications for any 2(k)-point FFT. To this aid, the parallel-processing twiddle factor generator and the dual addition-and-rounding fused FP arithmetic units are optimized to meet the high accuracy demand in computation and the low power budget in implementation. The proposed FP FFT processor has been designed in silicon based on SMIC's 28 nm CMOS technology with the active area of 1.39 mm(2). The prototype design delivers a throughput of 4 GSample/s at 500 MHz, at a peak power consumption of 84.2 mW. Thus, the proposed design approach achieves a significant improvement in power efficiency approximately by 14 times on average over some other FP FFT processors previously reported.
