3.1.5. Systolic FIR Mode
The basic structure of a FIR filter consists of a series of multiplications followed by an
addition.
Figure 23. Basic FIR Filter Equation
Depending on the number of taps and the input sizes, the delay through chaining a
high number of adders can become quite large. To overcome the delay performance
issue, the systolic form is used with additional delay elements placed per tap to
increase the performance at the cost of increased latency.

Intel Agilex variable precision DSP blocks support the following systolic FIR structures:
• 18-bit
• 27-bit
