The difference is that you have been wrong, while I have discussed plain, standard textbook material all the time. Asking you to provide a proof of your statement is another way of stating a semantic meaning often enough expressed on usenet as "RTFM!" > >> The OP was designing a sixth-order Butterworth, not a linear > >> phase FIR, but no matter. > >That was what the OP talekd about, yes.

In the summary at the end of Chapter 9 these authors state: "Finally we mention that lattice and lattice-ladder filter structures are known to be robust in fixed-point implementations." The is what I was attempting to commuicate to the OP for his filter problem, before the discussion got sidetracked. Steve
