Abstract:

To address the requirements of high-precision displacement sensors for high-speed displacement measurement algorithms for operating speed, protability and lower researching and developing cost, a hardware acceleration design method for high-precision measurement algorithms based on high-level synthesis (HLS) technology is proposed. By using HLS, the C++code is synthesized into Verilog. The design strategy for high-precision displacement measurement algorithms employs optimization techniques such as pipelining and array partitioning in HLS to achieve hardware acceleration and the design is packaged as an intellectual property (IP) core to enhance portability of the proposed algorithm. The measurement system is implemented on a Xilinx Kintex-7 field-programmable gate array (FPGA) XC7K325TFFG676 chip as a carrier, and experimental results demonstrate that the entire operating time of the proposed algorithm is 91.8 μs, which is 308.2 μs shorter than the implementation time of a digital signal processor (DSP), with the measurement accuracy of 44.44 nm, stability of 49.20 nm, and linearity of 0.503‰.
