Nowadays there are different kinds of attacks on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). As FPGAs are used in many different applications, its security becomes an important concern, especially in Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Hardware Trojan Horse (HTH) insertion is one of the major security threats that can be implemented in unused space of the FPGA. This unused space is unavoidable to ...

Every user of programmable logic at some point faces the question: “How large a device will I require to fit my design?” In an effort to provide guidance to their users, Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) manufacturers, including Xilinx, describe the capacity of FPGA devices in terms of “gate counts.” “Gate counting” involves measuring logic capacity in terms of the number of 2-input NAND gat...

Reconfigurable hardware has recently shown itself to be an appropriate solution to speeding up problems that are highly dependent on a particular complex or repetitive sub-algorithm. In most cases, these types of solutions lend themselves well to parallel solutions. The optimal design on field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) for problems with algorithms or sub-algorithms that can be highly par...

In this paper, we present a new contribution of FPGAs (Field-Programmable Gate Array) for control of electrical machines. A detailed description of the structure of direct torque control for PMSM drive, a bench test was realized by a prototyping platform, the experimental results obtained show the effectiveness and the benefit of our contribution and the different steps of implementation for th...

Variation in temperature is a common phenomenon which can affect the performance factor of any device used at different temperatures. Temperature sensors are used to identify the variation in temperature at various or same places as temperature can vary according to time at same place also. This work is related to making Temperature sensor Design on Virtex6 Field Programmable Gate Array for Low...

The concept of dynamic recon gurability combines advantages of hardware and software. The goal is to make use of the structural advantages of hardware without losing the exibility of software. In this paper we present a recon gurable processor board which is based on the concept of dynamic recon gurability. We emphasize on the dynamic recon gurability of the system and the multi-chip module (MC...

New markets are emerging for the fast growing field-programmable gate array (FPGA) industry. Standard and fair benchmarking practices are necessary to evaluate FPGA systems and determine their potential to support target applications. This paper provides an extensive survey of FPGA benchmarks in both academia and industry.

We demonstrated gate voltage control of spin precession in InGaAs mesoscopic ring arrays based on Rashba spin orbit interaction (SOI). We employed 100 nm ALD Al2O3 and 150 nm sputtered SiO2 gate insulators combined with large and small ring arrays to compare the gate sensitivity for the spin precession. Al’tshuler-Aronov-Spivak (AAS) oscillations were clearly observed and the oscillation phases...

In this project, an in-house built bipedal walking Robot uses two direct current gear motors to power its legs. Each leg could bend at the knee to assist the walking routines. In order to improve the walking step, a stabilization system is designed through a mechanical and field programmable gate array controller to improve the walking condition. In addition, the robot is able to prevent hittin...
