Communication and Control Systems Implementation in FPGAs and SoCs

In this chapter, you will continue learning about more advanced applications implemented in modern FPGAs and SoCs and what makes these devices suitable to host these types of processing- and bandwidth-demanding applications. You will gain clarity on how pipelined and parallel processing engines required by modern wired and wireless communications systems in general can be easily implemented in the FPGA logic. You will also examine how these parallel compute engines can be interfaced to wide memories and integrated with the powerful CPUs available in the SoCs. You will also gain an overview of modern control and industrial systems, which use a wide range of custom and industry-specific ...
