The SFRA: A Fixed Frequency FPGA Architecture

Extended Abstract 1 Introduction

The performance of fine-grained, cellular FPGAs is improving rapidly. In this paper, the experience of working with two relatively finegrained FPGA architectures, the Atmel 6005 FPGA and the Dynamically Programmable Logic Device (DPLD) from Pilkington Micro-electronics Ltd, is described.

Analysis and practical implementation of the regular symmetric sampled three-phase PWM inverter waveform has been presented in this paper. It is digitally implemented on a Xilinx field programmable gate array FPGA, and the essential considerations involved in the feasibility of using a Xilinx XC4008E software-based to generate PWM has been discussed. All the necessary Xilinx hardware/software t...

This paper presents a novel approach for the design and simulation of variable-speed drives when the control algorithm is to be implemented in an Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). The specialized Simulink tools used and the design procedure are presented. An application example using a Direct Torque Control (DTC) induction motor drive is presented and discussed. © 2003 IMACS.
