This article presents a novel extension to the FAUST programming language called Widget Modulation. Inspired by Modular Synthesizer, this high order operation enables developers to effortlessly implement voltage control type modulation to existing FAUST circuits. Although signal modulation can easily be achieved by writing the necessary code during...
This paper provides an overview of the developments in the FAUST programming language and ecosystem since the 2022 International FAUST Conference. Over the past two years, the FAUST community has made significant progress in compiler enhancements, backend integrations, web-based tools, a new Widget Modulation language extension, and FPGA support fo...
This paper presents a programmable digital filtering unit dedicated to operating with signals from infrared (IR) detection modules. The designed device is quite useful for increasing the signal-to-noise ratio due to the reduction in noise and interference from detector–amplifier circuits or external radiation sources. Moreover, the developed device...
The range resolution of FMCW radar is critical for accurately distinguishing between multiple objects. Higher range resolution allows for better object separation and more precise location determination. While increasing the bandwidth can improve range resolution, it also raises costs and may be subject to regulatory constraints on the available fr...
Multi-level inverters have characteristics suitable for high-voltage and high-power applications through various topology configurations. These reduce harmonic distortion and improve the quality of the output waveform by generating a multi-level output voltage waveform. In particular, an active neutral-point-clamped topology is one of the multi-lev...

Expanding the definition of memristor gets memcapacitor and meminductor. Because there are very few physical memory elements, it is very meaningful to apply its equivalent model to the study of physical circuits. In this paper, based on the definition of the memory element, a new memcapacitor and a new meminductor are proposed, and a chaotic oscill...
Syfala is a toolchain aiming to facilitate the development of real-time audio Digital Signal Processing (DSP) applications on Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) platforms. Since its introduction in 2021, the project has been relying on the FAUST programming language as its primary programming interface. The resulting C++ code generated by the FAU...
The implementation of audio spatialization and active acoustic control techniques requires a large number of audio channels and significant computational resources, making these techniques costly and hardly accessible. The use of Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) offers a solution by enabling DSP programming within a centralized system with en...

In this paper, a memristive circuit is designed based on a charge-controlled memristor, and the Hamilton energy function is obtained from the Helmholtz theorem. The system equation of memristive circuit is discretized by redefining the variables to obtain a three-dimensional memristive map and the corresponding energy function. Then, the effects of...
