FPGA - ARM Heterogeneous System for High Speed Signal Analysis

摘要

This paper presents a revised approach to hardware solution denoted as Programmable Unit for Diagnostic (PUD-2) based on Filed Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) and ARM-based OMAP3530 microprocessor adapted for diagnostic systems. The sampling frequency of the input analog signals and digital signals processing speed of the PUD is high beyond comparable DSP based systems. Employing ARM microprocessor allows for much quicker and easier design than only FPGA-based solution.
