A Generic Platform for High Speed Real-Time Analog-to-Digital Interfaces

OBS! ANSÖKNINGSTIDEN FÖR DETTA EXJOBB HAR LÖPT UT.
Introduction
In many electronic systems developed at Acreo AB there is a need for investigating the properties of analog signals. Since signal processing is preferably done in the digital domain, the analog signal must be converted using an Analog-to-Digital Converter, ADC. For realtime
signal processing of the digital output from the ADC a fast interface to the PC is required. A suitable candidate for this interface is the USB 2.0 standard; USB 2.0 is a serialinterface with a theoretical transfer rate of 480Mbit/sec.

Task
The task is to develop a generic platform that includes an ADC and a USB 2.0 interface connected to a PC. This require adaptation of the firmware supplied by the USB manufacturer and development of software that performs basic signal processing functions, such as Fast Fourier Transforms on the received data. The software shall include a user friendly interface and be easy to modify when new requirements emerge. Fast adaptation to new project applications put high demands on the system architecture as well as on the system documentation.

Activity Description

Specification:
Together with Acreo employees develop a system and
test specification for the system.
System Description:
Define system architecture, choose USB controller
and suitable software for the platform.
USB Firmware Adaptation:
The firmware must be adapted to meet our
requirements
Programming of PC-application:
Development of PC application software that includes a user friendly interface

Test:
Test of implemented hardware and software

Documentation:
Design and Test Reports according to Acreo standard.

Presentation:
Presentation at Acreo

Time plan
The thesis work is scheduled for 20 weeks and starts as soon as a suitable candidate is found.
