Summary:The respective pixel stages of an electro-optical transversal filter may be intimately associated with corresponding stages of a CCD shift register means in a monolithic structure on an integrated chip. The shift register means, which operates to forward a pre-selected one of a set of analog reference weights to each of the transversal filter pixel stages, permits the transversal filter to be used in an electro-optical correlation means having a very high effective computation rate.
