Yes you are so right, I forgot a lot of stuff. Don't worry we are using
matlab, and we are going to finish sims.

we really should write some specs for it huh.

not so complete plan:
* use matlab to design filters/model schemes
* model functions using vhdl
* simulate and debug
* create testbenches
* build a prototype circuit
* synthesize our code onto fpga
* analyze results using various scopes

working on block diagrams. sigh....
