CIC combs ignore the differential delay · case 04
With M = 2 the comb subtracts the previous low-rate sample instead of the one two samples back.
Case contract
Input [N, R, M, samples]: N integrator stages at the input rate, keep the integrator output at indices R-1, 2R-1, ... (whole blocks only), then N comb stages y = v - v[k-M] at the low rate with zero initial state; divide by the gain (R M)^N and return exact fraction strings.
Why this case matters
CIC decimators front most digital down-converters; decimation phase, delay or gain slips distort the passband level.
