Changes in Design since PRD
Spartan 3 Starter kit replaces Spartan 3E Kit
Reason: Cheaper and more readily available.
Better alternative for low-income students. Not
hard to tweak code for the 3E.
Siemens 8051
 Reason: Already known by us, provides enough.
PC Communication Serial and USB
 Initially PC->Scope communication will be via
serial cable to the uC.
 Scope Data -> PC will de via serial/USB interface
from the FPGA.

Microcontroller
Siemens 8051
16-bit addressable, 8-bit data, 64kB
accessible external RAM
Basic control unit for enables, external
peripherals (SPI with ADC)
Will interface with the computer for
sending data and receiving user
commands (RS-232).
Microcontroller
Voltage Regulator
Latch, Decoder, EPROM, and
SRAM from uC
(32kx8 EPROM for program memory)
(32kx8 SRAM for external memory)
EEPROM from uC
(16kbit serial)
Serial Port
Serial Peripheral Interfacing
(SPI)
•SCK (Serial Data Clock): Data is shifted/latched on the
rising or falling edge of SCK (see next section).
•MOSI (Master Output/Slave Input): Data is transmitted
out of this pin if the chip is a Master and into this pin if the
chip is a Slave.
•CS (Chip Select, active low): Tells the peripheral that a
transfer is about to begin.
Analog to Digital Conversion

Input: 3Vpp (V+ - V- <3V)
Clock Input from FPGA:
10k to 53M samples/sec
12-bit Output Buffered, sent
to FPGA
Software – FPGA
Labview Module using VESA interface.
Communication via virtual COM port
drivers.


Cause the USB device to appear as an
addition com port available to the PC.
Applications can access the USB device in
the same way as it would access a
standard COM port.
Software – User GUI
Initial development in both MATLAB and
Labview


Labview has better interface modules but
more difficult to program the GUI.
MATLAB is easier to program the GUI but
the advanced controls will be more difficult
Use Labview to develop GUI with
MATLAB as a fallback.
Graphical User Interface
Inputs


Data will be inputted via USB from the
FPGA board.
Data Format

 Data will be 8 bit with 1 stop bit. (RS232)

Graphical Output to Monitor
 Data Graphs
 Controls to manipulate data graph and perform
analysis.
 Control inputs to be sent to micro controller.
