Description
Summary:This paper presents a complete procedure on prototyping using the FPGA of the STEMlab board and is intended to serve as a guide for developers, students and researchers interested in speeding up their projects and experiments. Due to the reconfigurability of its internal circuitry, being as simple as a code modification (using hardware description language), FPGA technology allows testing of several controller topologies and/or parameters without the need of any physical change at hardware. This feature allows a much faster development cycle of either commercial products or academic experiments. Besides the reconfigurability of the FPGA, the STEMlab board also offers the advantage of several peripheral already available, which includes, among others, high speed analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters, Ethernet communication and a dual-core ARM processor capable of running a Linux operating system. In this paper, a didactic method of use of this board is presented, from getting started to a complete academic and industrial application: detection of early damage on an induction motor using frequency response analysis.
