  1. 1. FPGA Based Control of Multiple Electric Machines for Marine Propulsion Systems

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Simon Weideskog; [2024]
    Keywords : FPGA; Field Oriented Control; BLDC; SVPWM; SMO; Electric Drives; Electric Machines; Sliding Mode Observer; Marine Propulsion; Multiple Machines; Boat Motor; Fältorienterad styrning; marin framdrivning; elektriska drivsystem; elmaskiner; flertal maskiner; båtmotor;

    Abstract : This master thesis addresses the control of electric propulsion motors in a marine context. The focus lies mainly on the implementation of field oriented control (FOC) in a field programmable gate array (FPGA). The hypothesis is that FPGAs provide performance advantages over microcontroller-based control solutions by enabling parallel processing. READ MORE

  2. 2. Wordlength inference in the Spade HDL : Seven implementations of wordlength inference and one implementation that actually works

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

  3. 3. Effects of Varying Precision on a FPGA using the SpMXV problem : A comparative study

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Vendela Asplund; Martin Lindefors; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : With Moore’s Law slowing down, designing computer hardware that keeps up with the performance demands is becoming increasingly difficult. An interesting area of research is the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) which is a re-programmable hardware device, and which might not be as dependent on Moore’s Law as other hardware.

  4. 4. Low-power Acceleration of Convolutional Neural Networks using Near Memory Computing on a RISC-V SoC

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Kristoffer Westring; Linus Svensson; [2023]
    Keywords : FPGA; ASIC; Near Memory Computing; RISC-V; Convolutional Neural Network; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The recent peak in interest for artificial intelligence, partly fueled by language models such as ChatGPT, is pushing the demand for machine learning and data processing in everyday applications, such as self-driving cars, where low latency is crucial and typically achieved through edge computing. The vast amount of data processing required intensifies the existing performance bottleneck of the data movement. READ MORE

  5. 5. Exploring Ethernet Switching Architectures for Area-Efficient Low-End Switches

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Jon Swedberg; Felix Ghosh; [2023]
    Keywords : Ethernet Switch; Architecture; Silicon Area; Area Optimization; ASIC; FPGA; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis project has been to develop an architecture for L2 ethernet switches that would be optimized for silicon area, targeting smaller low-end switches. A selection was made of three different switching architectures, which were compared and analyzed to explore the benefits and drawbacks of different approaches. READ MORE
