| Abstract: | Experience shows that knowledge transfer and understanding of fundamental FPGA principles are greatly improved by exercising laboratory practices and manual hands-on operations. Hence, a case study was performed on two didactic platforms for students of intelligent control techniques that were upgraded with FPGAs to be involved in laboratory practices. Among others, platforms allow implementation of traditional linear control algorithms, such as PID, or modern non-linear control algorithms, such as fuzzy logic or artificial neural networks. Initially, the underlying physics can be carefully studied, and the mathematical model can be derived. Then, such a model can be discretized into its digital form, an appropriate controller can be designed, and its performance can be compared to the known benchmark. Controllers and control parameters can be practiced by students themselves, offering underlying potential for improving students’ understanding of the fundamentals of FPGA. |
