Junction Noise

[Grant Richter]

Could someone give some general rules for "transversal" filters?
If I am using the term correctly?

This occurs in tapped binary shift registers where multiple taps are summed
to get a multi-level output voltage.

This also has frequency selective effects related to the number of taps,
the tap weights and clocking frequency?

So it is a FIR filter? Short of going and buying some books on DSP, are
there any useful rules of thumb, or handy references?

Thanks,

Grant
