An Altera variation on the last post is presented here. This article is based on the work of students from Yuan Ze University in Taiwan.
“Solar energy is becoming increasingly attractive as we grapple with global climate changes. However, while solar energy is free, non-polluting, and inexhaustible, solar panels are traditionally fixed. As such, they cannot […]
Many factors are currently pushing toward a technolgy-shift in power generation management :
- expected long-term increase of energy prices
- increase of green regulations such as the Kyoto protocol
- public pressure and customer awareness toward clean energy
- decrease of cheap oil ressources
- increase of world population and increase of the quality of life
- smart grid, etc…

Here’s a recent article published in Industrial Embedded Systems magazine on the topic of using FPGA to increase flexibility of design, power savings are costs reduction. The article has been written by Jason Chiang, Sr. Technical Marketing Manager Industrial Business Unit, Altera Corporation.
This article has a couple of interesting points regarding the use of Motor Control […]
Here’s an interesting online tutorial presented by the famous Clive ‘Max’ Maxfield introducing Actel Fusion mixed-signal FPGA and how they can useful for Motor Control applications. A general introduction on FPGAs is presented for people that aren’t familiar with this type of technology (which typically the case for motor control system designers).
Hurry up : this tutorial […]
Here is an interesting article from Kevin Morris on Actel Fusion FPGA where built-in analog programmable properties fits particularly well for control applications such as Motor Control. Here are some highlights :
”Fusion has been around for awhile now, and it seems to be finding a unique groove in the industry. Applications such as smart motor control […]
