Introduction In the digital programmable world, FPGA and ASIC play a vital role for complex designs implementation. In today’s world most of the applications uses FPGA to process the data in the real time and prototyping. The demand for FPGA is increasing because of its performance and reprogramability. The basic building block of FPGA is Logic Block(Configuration Logic Block or Versatile). Many applications, vendors claims the utilization of FPGA or FPGA density in terms of gate counts. Generated

Automation is basically the delegation of human control function to give technical device for: • Increasing productivity • Increasing Quality • Reducing Cost • Increasing Safety in working condition etc. Thus, Automation is the process o... ... middle of paper ... ...an capability (Speed, weight, size, endurance and Economy improvement
CHAPTER 1INTRODUCTION 1.1 PROJECT DEFINITION Advances in technology over the past decades have enabled the rapid evolution of industrial process that support an increasingly large portion of the modern society way of life. The main goal of these standards is to clarify the requirements for different applications and systems, in order to elevate their safety to an acceptable level. A Safety Control System (SCS) consists of an engineered set of hardware and software controls which are especially
sensors, actuators, and/or Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). SCADA systems were first designed to meet the basic requirements of process control systems where security issues were hardly a concern. However, the growing demands for increased connectivity between a SCADA system and other network components, such as the corporate network and the Internet, expose the critical parts of a SCADA system to the public. 1) SCADA Server or Master Terminal Unit (MTU): This Server device acts as the Master in

The system has been constantly innovated and improved upon as new ladder logic helps improve the stability and new sensors help improve efficiency. Overall these machines can range in price anywhere from $800,000 to $1,600,000. The price depends on the add-ons such as guarding, spare parts and other things. The typical assembly

An aspect, that has long since been addressed in design theory, which is how the office automation has impacted on the structure of organisation, now found its way into the social and cultural theory. In the past recent years, computer based technology has become a dominant element in office environments. The aim of technology is not to improve the efficiency in current office works, but to alter the structure of office work. The increase of using automated work system has caused different issues
People travel miles in search of their true passion; some find them early in their life and I consider myself lucky enough to be one among them. I found my true calling at the age of 12 on a field trip to a milk factory. It seemed like the Disneyland of science with huge machineries, conveyer belts running all around, and instruments working about in their own rhythm with sheer intricacies and perfection. As a kid, I was eager to understand the mechanics behind this magical rhythm. The desire of
Petri Nets is an emerging tool in Industrial Automation technology. They provide an uniform environment for the modelling, analysis and design of event systems. The model which is used for analysis of behavioral properties of the system can be used for the construction of simulators and controllers. a. Finite State Machines These are the forms in which Petri nets could be represented. One example is that of a Vending machine (figure shown below) which sells candy bars when the 5 or 10 cents are
know the controller as well. The controller can a programmable controller or none programmable controller. The programmable controller refers to microcontroller, processor or any electric control module that can be programmed. The none programmable controller is a pure electric circuit designed to perform a specific task. Compare the two controllers, programmable controller is more suitable used in the fuzzy logic. This is because the programmable controller has a flexible programming. Programmers
were attached to this bus. As integration levels increase, more and more logic is added to the processor die, creating families of application-specific service processors. The term system on chip (SOC) is often used to describe these highly integrated processors. These SOCs include much of the logic and interfaces that are required for a range of specific target applications. The silicon vendors that develop these SOC devices often create families of SOCs all using the same processor core, but with
Autoclave processing is widely used for producing high quality thermoset composites, these are used in various industries to process a wide variety of thermoset and thermoplastic materials [10]. Almost any shape of the composite parts can be cured in autoclaves as the gas pressure is applied isostatically, the only limitations is the size of the autoclave and require high capital to install autoclaves. Autoclaves are normally pressurized with inert gas like nitrogen or carbon dioxide and air, but
Therefore resulting performance increases are generally less in magnitude. Even multicore processor lag behind the GPUs floating point operations. This is because CPUs has large portion of die space to control logic and cache memory. Whereas, GPU allocates large die space to arithmetic units .Thus GPUs are able to perform floating point operation faster. 1.2 Accelerated Computing on GPU A GPU is a specialized electronic circuit helps to compute graphical and
What is a computer? It is an electronic device that manipulates information or data. It has the ability to store, retrieve and process data, typically in binary form, according to the instruction given to it in a variable program. There are two basic parts of computer, the Hardware which is the physical structure and the Software which is any set of instructions that tells the hardware what to do. The uses of computers now is endless. A person may utilize it for typing documents, sending emails
A computer is a general purpose device that can be programmed to carry out a set of arithmetic or logical operations. Since a sequence of operations can be readily changed, the computer can solve more than one kind of problem. Conventionally, a computer consists of at least one processing element, typically a central processing unit and some form of memory. The processing element carries out arithmetic and logic operations, and a sequencing and control unit that can change the order of operations
This however, does not limit the 8051’s efficiency. Among the specs mentioned above, a typical 8051 microcontroller’s CPU introduced a built in Boolean processor. This Boolean processor allows the reduction of code size through bit-level Boolean logic operations which are carried out on selected internal registers and selected RAM locations. Therefore, greater efficiency can be found in programs that deals with binary input and output conditions commonly found in digital-control problems. The four
main memory, bus, and ports but this does not include the keyboard or monitor, or any peripheral devices (Enterprise). A system unit is also known as a “Tower” or “Chassis”. It is the main part of a desktop computer. It also includes the motherboard, CPU, RAM and other components. (Techterms, System Units) A Motherboard is the main circuit board of your computer and is also known as the mainboard or logic board. If you were to ever open your computer the biggest piece of silicon you see would be the
colleagues have encouraged my aspiration and feel that I have the potential for pursuing graduate studies. My proclivity towards science started from my childhood. It was in my high school, I built my first AM radio which fascinated me about electronic devices. Fortuitously, this motivated me to move further and study about electrons, working of diode and transistor without knowing that it would be a stepping stone to my career in the field of electronics. All this was a bonus for me apart from good academic
sub-threshold leakage and gate leakage. Heating solutions for devices with high power dissipation is expensive. If FPGA’s are to be used in portable devices, power consumption needs to be reduced. -powered applications, high power consumption may prohibit the use of FPGA altogether. Consequently, solutions for reducing FPGA power are needed. In this work, I propose a programmable dual-VDD architecture in which the supply voltage of the logic blocks and routing blocks are programmed to reduce power consumption
Microprocessor It is a semiconductor device consisting of` electronic logic circuits`. A microprocessor accomplishes the tasks of a computer’s CPU on a single IC (integrated circuits) or multiples ICs. These IC individually are made of many small electrical components like transistors, resistors etc. It` is the brain of the computer and is also `referred to as a logic chip. It can be divided into three segments:- Arithmetic and Logic Unit (ALU) It executes arithmetic operations (expansion,
