Abstract :
Logic synthesis and hardware implementation of fuzzy controllers are introduced in this paper. The logic synthesis reduces the fuzzy controller to a set of Boolean equations. A software is specially developed for this purpose. The hardware implementation is carried out using field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). A speed of over 50 M FLIPS is achieved. The speed is independent of the number of rules of the fuzzy controller
