This paper proposes a design and implementation of multiplierless digital PID (Proportional-Integral-Derivative) controller using FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) for controlling the speed of DC motor in digital system. The multiplierless PID structure is based on Distributed Arithmetic (DA). The DA is an efficient way to compute an inner product using partial products, each can be obtained by using look-up table. The PID controller is designed using MATLAB program to generate a set of coefficients associated with a desired controller characteristics. The controller coefficients are then included in VHDL (Very high speed integrated circuit Hardware Description Language) that implements the PID controller onto FPGA. MATLAB program is used to activate the PID controller, calculate and plot the time response of the control system. In addition, the hardware implementation uses VHDL and synthesis using FLEX10K Altera FPGA as target technology and use MAX+plusII program for overall development. Results in design are shown the speed performance and used area of FPGA. Finally, the experimental results can be shown when compared with the simulation results from MATLAB.

이족로봇이 stand-alone 형태를 가지기 위해서는 기계적인 구조가 중요할 뿐만 아니라 하드웨어시스템이 간결하게 잘 설계되어야 한다. 이렇게 하드웨어시스템이 가볍고 간결하여 설계되어야 쉽게 로봇에 장착할 수가 있다. 본 논문에서는 FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Array)를 이용해 모터 제어기를 구성해서 이족로봇을 설계하는 방법을 다루고자 한다. 본 논문에서 구성하는 하드웨어 시스템은 메인 CPU로 AM186ES를 사용하며 FPGA는 Altera사의 FLEX EPF10K20TC144-3을 사용하였다. 이와 같이 FPGA를 사용하는 하드웨어시스템은 기본적으로 VHDL언어를 사용하여 유연하게 하드웨어를 구성 할 수 있으며, 이족로봇의 여러 가지 보행 알고리즘에 능동적으로 대처할 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라 하드웨어가 간단해 지면서 가볍고 전력소모가 적으며 신뢰성 있는 시스템을 구축할 수 있다.

In this paper, we propose a parallel optimization method of Aho-Corasick (AC) algorithm and Parallel Failureless Aho-Corasick (PFAC) algorithm using Open Computing Language (OpenCL) on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). The low throughput of string matching engine causes the performance degradation of network process. Recently, many researchers have studied the string matching engine using parallel computing. FPGA's vendors offer a parallel computing platform using OpenCL. In this paper, we apply the AC and PFAC algorithm on DE1-SoC board with Cyclone V FPGA, where the optimization that considers FPGA architecture is performed. Experiments are performed considering global id, local id, local memory, and loop unrolling optimizations using PFAC algorithm. The performance improvement using loop unrolling is 129 times greater than AC algorithm that not adopt loop unrolling. The performance improvements using loop unrolling are 1.1, 0.2, and 1.5 times greater than those using global id, local id, and local memory optimizations mentioned above.

The development of technology provides and increases security as well as convenience for humans. The development of new technology directly affects the standard of life thanks to smart home automatic control systems. This paper describes a door control, automatic curtain, home security (CCTV, fire, gas, safe, etc.), home control (energy, light, ventilation, etc.) and web-based smart home automatic controller. It also describes the use of ARM (Advanced RISC Machines) for automatic control of home equipment, a Multi-Axes Servo Controller using FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) and PLC (programmable logic controller). Additionally, it describes the development of a HTML editor using web auto control software. The tab loading time (7 seconds) is faster when using ARM-based web browser software instead of Chrome and Firefox is used because the browser has a small memory footprint (300M). This system is realized by web auto controller language which controls and uses PLCs that are easier than existing devices. This smart home automatic control technology can control smart home equipment anywhere and anytime and provides a remote interface through mobile equipment.

Field Programmable Gate Array(FPGA)s are replacing traditional integrated circuits for space applications due to their lower development cost as well as reconfigurability. However, they are very sensitive to single event upset (SEU) caused by space radiation environment. In order to mitigate the SEU, on-board computer of STSAT-3 employed a triple modular redundancy(TMR) and scrubbing scheme. Experimental results showed that upset threshold energy was improved from 10.6 MeV to 20.3 MeV when the TMR and the scrubbing were applied to the on-board computer. Combining the experimental results with the orbit simulation results, calculated bit-flip rate of on-board computer is 1.23 bit-flips/day assuming in the worst case of STSAT-3 orbit.

This paper presents the comparative performance of an adaptive FIR filter for a Delayed LMS algorithm. The delayed error signal was used to obtain a Delayed LMS algorithm to allow efficient pipelining for achieving a small critical path and area efficient implementation. This paper presents hardware efficient results (device utilization parameters) and power consumed. The FPGA families (Artix-7, Virtex-7, and Kintex-7) for a low voltage perspective are shown. The synthesis results showed that the artix-7 CMOS family achieves the lowest power consumption of 1.118 mW with 83.18 % device utilization. Different Precision strategies, such as the speed optimization and power optimization, were imposed to achieve these results. The algorithm was implemented using MATLAB (2013b) and synthesized on the Leonardo spectrum.

A novel programming architecture for antifuse FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Array) is described. This architecture prevents programming transistors from breakdown which occurs due to high voltage across the transistors during antifuse programming. Extra mask and processes can be avoided using this proposed architecture. To reduce the applied voltage across the terminals of programming transistors, different voltage ranges are supplied to vertical and horizontal tracks; between programming voltage Vp and Vp/2 for vertical tracks and between Vp/2 and 0V for horizontal tracks. Therefore, Maximum voltage across the programming transistors is half of the programming voltage and an designated antifuse can be programmed by applying maximum voltage for vertical track and minimum voltage for horizontal track while others are subjected to voltage difference below Vp/2.

This paper proposes an image-dependent color image enhancement method that uses adaptive luminance enhancement and color emphasis. It effectively enhances details of low-light regions while maintaining well-balanced luminance and color information. To compare the structure similarity and naturalness, we used the tone mapped image quality index (TMQI). The proposed method maintained better structure similarity in the enhanced image than did the space-variant luminance map (SVLM) method or the adaptive and integrated neighborhood dependent approach for nonlinear enhancement (AINDANE). The proposed method required the smallest computation time among the three algorithms. The proposed method can be easily implemented using the field-programmable gate array (FPGA), with low hardware resources and with better performance in terms of similarity.

We have developed an optimization algorithm based formulation for performing efficient time driven simultaneous place and route for FPGAS. Field programmable gate array(FPGAS) provide of drastically reducing the turn-around time for digital ICs, with a relatively small degradation in performance. For a variety of application specific Integrated circuit application, where time-to-market is most critical and the performance requirement do not mandate a custom or semicustom approach, FPGAS are an increasingly popular alternative. This has prompted a substantial amount of specialized synthesis and layout research focused on maximizing density, minimizing delay, and minimizing design time.
