Absolute Encoder VHDL core
Project description
The absolute encoder package (absenc_pkg) implements components for absolute encoder masters and slaves. It supports the following interfaces:
This implementation is optimized for applications that can be dynamically configured to use one amongst different types of interfaces at a particular time. As much as possible, resources that can be shared across interfaces are factorized (counters, comparators, shift registers ...) and accessed through a multiplexer. However, and in order to avoid penalizing simpler applications, static configuration allows to exclude resources associated with an unused interface.
The master implements the following configurable data conversion pipeline:
- LSb to MSb
- Gray to binary
- Sign extension
Main features
- Applicable to all interfaces
- master and slave modes
- configurable master clock frequency
- configurable data length
- static timeout
- ENDAT
- send position mode version 2.1 only
- no CRC check
- BISS
- point to point configuration only
- no interleaved bit support (ie. CDS, CDM)
- SSI
- optional gray data coding (master only)
- optional parity bit (not checked)
