Honored ContributorHi, Everybody.
I'm trying to build a flight control system that is based on FPGA. Is there anybody on this platform who has experience related to this topic, as i'm new into FPGA's and i could use some help. Help needed mainly with the VHDL or Verilog Program to run the system. The Flight Control System in for a Quadcopter. Please help me in case you are familiar with this topic.
Honored ContributorThank you very much.
That makes things clear for me.Honored ContributorJust to clarify: I asked for the block diagram because those show how much thought has gone into designing. And us identifing a good starting point, such as the serial port or similar. In this case it showed a softcore cpu, which changes the viewpoint a bit.
Honored Contributor@Pietervanderstar could you please share your point of view with me based on how you think i should approach this project on VHDL.
Also, if you have any recommendation based on Books or Publications related to this project, i would highly appreciate.Honored Contributorconcerning the books: https://www.alteraforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=41998
as for your project, you use a softcore thus you already have the serial port and memory controller. Then you need to think about how to handle the gps and "sensors" what is the interface to them? maybe the softcore has that interface as well. Then you only need to write software. If the interface is not on the nios then you can do two things, either writing a vhdl component to translate to another interface (usually GPIOs) or write software to emulate the interface using GPIOs.Honored Contributor@PietervanderStar thanks for the Link. It's really useful.
Also thanks about the Project tips.Honored ContributorHi, guys.
The Cyclone V FPGA Development Board ( DE1-Board) comes with Dual Core ARM (HPS). Is it possible to upload my ARM existing program written in C-Language, and use it in the Cyclone V FPGA development board (DE1-Board)....???? If yes, how to do this.
