Hi, friends,

Does anyone know is there any commercial DSP and FPGA based general
purpose control board suitable to motor drive control? FPGA takes care
of the A/D, D/A and gating and DSP takes care of the calculation part.

Thanks

Abhijit,

Thanks for the info.  One more question though.

What about the clamp diode?  The 3.3v PCI buffer is supposed to have a clamp
diode and the 5v PCI buffer cannot.  Do we have to specify this somewhere as
well or will the tools know to put a clamp on the input if it is 12ma
(3.3vPCI) and not if it is 24ma (5v PCI).

FPGAs don't have built in ADCs or DACs, although you can get at DAC
through pulse width modulation for lower frequency outputs.  If you are
using an FPGA for the motor drive controller, you can also do the PID or
other control fucntion in the FPGA and eliminate the processor, or
conversely, if the DSP already has enough umph to handle the calculation
part, it should be able to handle the gating, and might even have a built
in DAC and/or ADC.

Use a DDFS.  The jitter will be a maximum of one cycle of the 77.76 MHz clock.
The frequency accuracy depends on the number of bits.  Basically this is an
accumulator clocked at the 77.76 MHz, to which a constant increment is added so
that the accumulator overflows once per 1.544MHz cycle.  The digital output,
assuming tht is what you are looking for, is the msb of the accumulator.  If you
need a different wave shape, the msbs of the accumulator can drive a look up or
other waveshape converter (the upper bits represent phase as a fractional
revolution).

For example, if you use a 12 bit accumulator,   an increment value of 81 gives
an output frequency of  1.5377MHz.  More bits will get better frequency
resolution.  You could get real close with a 12 bit accumulator if you modulate
the increment so it is 81 for 2 clocks and 82 for the 3rd.

Hello All,
 as it happens we have recently ported our control
architecture to a simple low cost fpga based board, (XESS).
At present it is complete and under test. Only single axis
control, (via parallel port interface), is implemented.
Output to amp is pwm signal which needs to be amplified and
shifted, if you wish to use simple digital amp this would be
easier, (e.g. technology Artisans..since you are in
Toronto!). I would expect that we will have a multiple,(6 to
8), axis system using our stateline architecture over the
summer. The encoder feedback and overall system speed and
capability are equivalent or better than a system we
previously built using HP quad decode and 80c196 cpu, 

Regards

Ian

Tom,

  For 5v PCI, there is a bitgen switch (-g 5V_Tolerant_IO) which you should set
to Yes.  It can also be accessed in the Design Manager GUI under the
Configuration Template.

Hi - 

I should have added (at least) one thing.  The "typ," "min," and "max"
categories refer to typical, minimum, and maximum drive strength.  Max
therefore corresponds to the lowest impedance and min the highest.

There's nothing unusual about the roughly 2:1 impedance spread for a
given driver.  Much of this is due to process variation, and the rest
to voltage and temperature variation.

Hi!

The phase accumulator actually isn't a good circuit to use for this
application, as the division will need to be exact (these are
telecommunications frequencies), and the ratio is such that it can't
be represented exactly with 2^N in the denominator.  That means that
an infinite number of bits in the phase accumulator is needed to get
the exact frequency.

I suggest a fractional-N divider.

My fractional-N divider generator program suggests that this
particular divider is best implemented with a /50, /51 dual modulus
prescaler (i.e. a counter that has selectable division ratios of 50
and 51).
The prescaler is controlled such that for every 193 output clocks, 123
of them are /50 and 70 of them are /51.
Output jitter will have a fundamental frequency of 8kHz, and its
amplitude will be minimised if the 70 clocks of /51 are interleaved as
evenly as possible between the 123 clocks of /50.
The minimum peak to peak jitter is 1 clock period of the 77.76MHz
input.

Note that the modulus controller can be clocked at the output
frequency of 1.544MHz (for low power) or at the input frequency of
77.76MHz (if you run out of clock nets, or are afraid of crossing
clock domain boundaries).  You will need to use clock enables if the
modulus controller is clocked from the input clock.

BTW, jitter is measured between like clock edges.  The duty cycle
usually doesn't come into it.  However, it is simple to design the
prescaler so that its output is high for 25 clocks, and low for 25 or
26 clocks (for /50 or /51, respectively), which gives a duty cycle of
either 49% or 50%.

Regards,
Allan.

Hi!

I have a few modules that works in this way...
In_module which works at .. say 33Mhz( f), out_module at ard 2MHz ( f/16). I
have synchornized the out_module to in_module and the warning goes away...
and yup! The simulation result is now correct :-))
but I suffer some delay(1-2 clk cycles) in sending data... :-(

There is another out2_module that works at much higher speed, (max f/3 or
11MHz). I believe my method no longer works since the delay (1-2 clk cycles)
is intolerable in this case... Does yer method work in this case?

btw, in Synplify, I managed to design all my modules to work at, say all
>70Mhz. But when I use schematic to interconnect the modules in max+plus2
(use fast logic synthesis), after compilation, the max frequency drops
drastically to ard 40MHz.... is there any way to improve the final max
frequency close to 70MHz??

Thanks Iglasner & Christian for sharing yer experiences... They're useful
for novice like me :-)

MK

First, it is possible you are adding relatively long combinatorial delays when
you connect the modules together, or you may be loading down a signal with too
high a fanout.  That can be mitigated somwhat by duplicating logic.

You may be filling the device up to where routing congestion gets in the way and
slows it down.  The Altera devices are vulnerable to this phenomenon, especially
in heavily data path and arithmetic designs because of the routing structure.
Here, about all that really helps is going to a different design approach.  You
can go to a larger device, but you won't get the same speeds for your modules
there (see below).

Also be aware that the Altera line slows down as you go to bigger devices in the
same family/speed grade, again due to the routing resources.

Without knowing more about your design, it is hard to say what the exact problem
is.

Another approach that results in even less jitter is to use a /50,
/50.5 prescaler instead of a /50, /51 prescaler.

The controller will give 53 counts of /50 and 140 counts of /50.5

The fundamental output jitter frequency is still 8kHz (= 1.544MHz /
(53 + 140)), but the amplitude will be only 0.5 periods of the
77.76MHz clock (assuming this clock has a 50% duty cycle).  This is
only 0.010 UIp-p, which is surely good enough for your application.

The output duty cycle also improves to 49.5%

If you just want to experiment, you can simply download the
configuration directly into the device with the Xilinx Parallel port
cable. You lose the configuration when the power is removed, of course.
The cable is quite cheap, or you can make your own from the circuit
Xilinx provide on their web site.

Abhijit,
Thanks very much.  Our confusion lied in the fact that we could specificly call out
a PCI primitive in the Virtex lib, but not in the XLA lib.  You have cleared it

Hi,

I try to use  Modeltech 5.3a to perform a timing analysis (XILINX ping
design).

The simulation script stops with:
sdf file: requires Xilinx primitive library

I included the the primsim and unisim library from the <XILINX> directory.

Does anybody have an idea, how to fix this problem ?

Hi,

  you mention that you have low freq which are f/16, IF this low freq
is generate from the base freq (f) than you might not need the
syncronizer at all BUT here come the tricky quesiton, how do you
generate the low freq ?

if you have a counter/devider than depend on the way you designed this
devide, if you design is such as that both posedge of the low freq and
high freq are togther (a cascade DFF as a simple counter therfore will
not do) than when you send a signla from the low freq to the high the
signal not need to have any "handling" HOWEVER when you send from the
high to the low than you must hold it for few clock so it will still be
active when the low freq finaly get to the posedge. (if you also use
negedge of clock somewhere you will need that also both negedge of the
clock will be on the same time).

BTW the "suffer" of clock delay is expected as after all you sample it
twice in the syncronizer.

also you might consider not a full-handshake incase you are certain
that the other module "saw" the signla, and in this case you can de-
active the signal as soon as you belive it is ok.

unless you are limited due to number of FF/gates I belive this will
work also in higher frequance, what you might consider doing but is all
depend on your desing is that you might consider adding a fifo, or
maybe make the data passing as burst mode meaning that when you ask to
read the data you also tell how many read you want to do in this read
(the how many will be treated as data and not need to be syncronized)
and than you can get few block of data but again it is all just an
idea's and it all depoend on your design.

have a nice day

You are writing "f" and "f/16". Are these frequencies synchronous,
that is, is that f/16 created from f by division? In this case,
it would be much easier and better to feed the higher frequency to all
modules and to do the "frequency division" by distributing a f/16
clock-enable signal.

This would be a fully synchronous design, and all synchronization
problems would be solved, maybe (but not necessarily) at the cost of
higher logic consumption.

This is very hard to tell without knowing more about the whole
design. The timing analyzer might help you to find the specific signal
that needs that 25ns.

a realtime network.
Does anybody have some experiences about this topic ???

Should (could) I use some demo-ports with pci-slots and start the
comminication
with the pci-bus (is it fast enough??) or can I make a direct connection
???
Are any other connections possible ??

Thanks for all informations!

series, have at least 3 7-seg displays and some switches, buttons, ADC,
etc. and serial download.
Maybe somebody can recommend me a cheap and good one.

Thanks,
Philipp

    Please is there any way to convert from parallel to serial without
using a counter to control the shift register?

Thanks

Hello!

Command line? I presume DOS-Prompt.
As I saw the .bsd file has a long file name not 8.3 format.
The DOS prompt can't find file beyond 8.3 format.

Try changing names or similar.

Greetings
Marko
