Industrial communication: industrial Ethernet, TSN, OCP/UA
Critical advantage in industrial communications
Even better than ASSPs, FPGAs hold a critical advantage in industrial communications as all protocols in this field can be implemented in an FPGA with a high degree of flexibility. Industrial Ethernet is a prime example of this. EBV Elektronik has been active in this field for many years. With Industry 4.0, deterministic Ethernet (TSN) will first be used on PLC to PLC communication using OPC/UA, but has a good chance to be used in devices as well. EBV provides with its suppliers solutions for today’s requirements which are ready for tomorrow’s needs.
PLC - Programmable Logic Controller
A factory control network is based on PLCs which require support for multiple specialised peripherals using an FPGA
They are configured around an application processor that runs the factory control software along any master communication protocol stack.

Video compression
Broadcast, machine vision, surveillance cameras
Also in some consumer display screens, ASSPs, microprocessors, FPGAs and DSPs are used for additional features. Other standards like JPEG, JPEG2000, MPEG can also be implemented in those devices, esp. perfectly suited, when special features like low latency or non-mainstream resolutions are required.

Technologies around FPGA
FPGAs provide the ideal platform to solve a lot of applications. However to extend the functions and get a complete system solution, there are more technologies required for a complete heterogeneous processing platform
EBV Elektronik offers a wide portfolio of devices from Clock Distribution & PLL, Interfaces, Memory, Power Management, ADC/DAC, Signal Chain and Optical Isolation devices.

System solutions
With the appropriate reference boards, customers can easily test different solutions and start implementing their design without the need to build a complete test hardware
This usually saves a lot of time. After registering,developers will be able to communicate with our design experts by sharing block diagrams within our ‘Build Your Block Design’ tool.
