Hi
There is a device made by Chord called an M-Scaler:
https://chordelectronics.co.uk/product/hugo-mscaler/
It uses a 740 core Xilinx XC7A200T and took a couple of years for the engineer to write the code for it. It pushed the power of the device to its limit to get 1 million taps on the filter used in the device. The designer claims it was only the release of processors of this power that allowed him to do it.
However some have said an Intel processor should be able to do it, possibly even a PC. I find that quite hard to believe - I would think it would not have the power of the XC7A200T with its 740 cores. But the person concerned is insistent.
What do people here think?
Thanks
Bill
