FPGA Array Demonstrator Platforms for Satellite Digital Processor Development
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the use of flexible multi-FPGA demonstrator platforms by the processor systems group in Astrium UK to support the design and development of large ASIC-based processors. Such platforms can provide major improvements in the areas of algorithm and design validation, system demonstration and ASIC design which act to mitigate the adverse aspects of multi-ASIC system implementation noted above.

Design and Implementation of Field Programmable Gate Array Based Baseband Processor for Passive Radio Frequency Identification Tag (TECHNICAL NOTE)
In this paper, an Ultra High Frequency (UHF) base band processor for a passive tag is presented. It proposes a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag digital base band architecture which is compatible with the EPC C C2/ISO18000-6B protocol. Several design approaches such as clock gating technique, clock strobe design and clock management are used. In order to reduce the area Decimal Matrix C...
متن کاملDigital Signal Processing with General Purpose Microprocessors, DSP and Rcinfigurable Logic
This paper compares selected digital signal processing algorithms on a variety of computing platforms in terms of achievable performance and cost. The experiments were carried out on a standard PC platform, DSP, a RISC microcontroller and on Xilinx XC4013XL FPGA. Our results confirm that general purpose microprocessors are not well suited to these tasks. Both DSP and FPGA achieve higher perform...
متن کاملImplementation of a Digital Beamformer in an Fpga Using Distributed Arithmetic
The FPGA technology has lately become an attractive alternative for implementation of a wide range of DSP applications. In this paper we discuss an implementation of radar phase array antenna system. The final implementation of this beamformer is to be used in a demonstrator of such a radar system. The critical component of the digital beamformer when both throughput and chip area is considered...
متن کاملFPGAs: Excellent Platforms for SoC Testing R&D
Incorporation of complex embedded cores including programmable multi-port memories, digital signal processors (DSPs), and clock management systems, makes field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) more closely resemble system-on-chip (SoC) implementations. As a result, FPGA testing techniques are not only increasing in scope, but are becoming increasingly important for a broader range of system app...
متن کاملDeclaratively Programmable Ultra Low-Latency Audio Effects Processing on FPGA
WaveCore is a coarse-grained reconfigurable processor architecture, based on data-flow principles. The processor architecture consists of a scalable and interconnected cluster of Processing Units (PU), where each PU embodies a small floating-point RISC processor. The processor has been designed in technology-independent VHDL and mapped on a commercially available FPGA development platform. The ...
