Hi all,

I downloaded some FFT routines from ADI web site for the Blackfin.
The zip file contains radix-4 and radix-2 complex FFT implemented
(together with other things) in assembly and corresponding C test
files. In the assembly file it is stated that the radix-4 FFT
consumes around 600 cycles for 64-point complex FFT, but when I run
the SAME test with the SAME LDF file in the simulator I get around
double this number of cycles (cycles are obtained by an assembly
function supplied with the FFT code). Can any one comment on that.

Another thing is that I need real FFT instead of complex FFT, the
real FFT function provided in the dsplib seems to consume 3x as much
cycles as the complex radix-4 FFT. Is there an efficient (less
flexible) real FFT and inverse FFT available for download from some
where?

Any help is appreciated.

John
