PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

1. DESIGN OF PARALLEL ARCHITECTURE USING MSP430 & VIRTEX-4-

This project is done under the guidance of Prof. Rajiv Kapoor. Parallel processing uses multiple processors working together to solve a single task. Processors can either solve different portions of the same problem simultaneously or work on the same portion of a problem concurrently. Here we use TI microcontroller MSP430 which is used in parallel with Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) Virtex-4.

We proposed a parallel design using MSP430 and Virtex-4 which are interfaced through USB UART with each other. In USB-UART connection the data is transferred with 57600 baud rate.

In this parallel architecture my goal is that MSP430 works as a frontend device while Virtex-4 works as a backend device. So the analog input data is given to the MSP430 which converts the analog data into digital form. When the conversion is completed then data is transferred to Virtex-4 platform for further processing. In Virtex-4, the data is received in digital form. After processing the data in Virtex-4, it is sent back to MSP430. Now in MSP430 the data is converted to analog from digital form and produces an output.

In the design we should consider the process delay which causes the unwanted mismatch between incoming and outgoing data. As during the data communication, both the board send and receive the data simultaneously. But due to any reason, if there is a delay in any process so all the synchronization between the data is disturbed and board finds it hard to get the data correctly.

Another thing is that this system is developed on the evaluation board so there is a lot of limitation for designing the system. We can developed this system by using separate chips of processors, ADC, DAC, LCD and USB UART modules and connecting them accordingly. We can develop such type of application on this system so that processors can have more and more work on it.

2. TOOL CHAIN DEVELOPMENT-

The basic objective is to convert Matlab code into a FPGA or into a layout design. First we convert Matlab code to C code using Matlab R2008a. Since the C code is easy to execute and it gives result in less time as compare to Matlab code. We can also convert the Matlab code into VHDL code with the help of Matlab. From VHDL code to FPGA design, we need Xilinx ISE 8 Software which burns the FPGA kit to give the desired circuit. This provides a general overview of designing Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA devices) with Hardware Description Languages (HDLs).

3. VHDL LIBRARY OF ARITHMETIC AND LOGICAL UNITS-

The aim of the project is to design a library of arithmetic and logical units. The library gives the user ease to use these units directly into its application. The library is designed in VHDL. The library has as many as 16 components which are basic arithmetic units and are frequently used in complex application programs. It gives an idea of library of arithmetic and logical units. It also enlists the use of our library in various applications.

4. STEPPER MOTOR CONTROL USING 89C51 MICRO-CONTROLLER-

A stepper motor controller based on 89C51 microcontroller to control the rotation of a D.C. stepper motor in clockwise and anti clockwise directions. The controller is simple and easy to construct, and can be used in many applications including machine control and robotics for controlling the rotation in any plane.

We have used here an Atmel make low-power, high-performance, 8-bit CMOS microcontroller AT89C51 with 4kB of Flash programmable and erasable read-only memory (PEROM). It has a 128x8 bit internal RAM, 32 programmable input/output (I/O) lines and two 16-bit timer/counters. The on-chip Flash allows the program memory to be reprogrammed in-system or by a conventional non-volatile memory programmer.

GATE SCORE: 550 with GATE percentile 97.6 in 2009.
