Abstract

The design idea of control and data separation is an effective means to realize the complex communication system, and the control part can usually be designed and realized by means of finite state machine (FSM). However, there is no effective method to realize the complex communication system based on finite state machine in the existing research. Aiming at the problem of the existing FPGA design and implementation methods with complex and non-universal communication protocol and algorithm design, a Flowchart based Finite State Machine (F-FSM) design and implementation method for FPGA is proposed, which significantly improves the FPGA development efficiency. This method takes the flowchart describing the complex communication system as input, divides the communication system into modules, and outputs the finite state machine transition diagram and transition matrix of the control module. This method can effectively shorten the design time of the communication system and its control module. Finally, an IP core encapsulated in FPGA is designed. This method can effectively improve the development efficiency of control module, improve the re-usability of control module and reduce the workload of code development.
