    Yes, FIR compiler.

    FIR = running convolution of input stream with coefficients.

    i.e. it applies convolution to the continuous stream of input

    Yes Altera's FIR compiler, where-ever they have put it.

    You will set it as a filter with cutoff, coefficients etc then the module will convolve its input with coefficients.
