FPGA system-on-chip solution for a field oriented hybrid stepper motor control

The motivation of this work is the design of low-cost systems. With the chosen costumizable system-on-chip it is possible to design a complex controlling system on one chip. Besides a microcontroller there is also an FPGA. With this programmable logic device it is possible to make your design more flexible than a simple software solution. Besides the flexibility, there is also the performance which can be increased and also the reconfigurability of such hardware systems is increasing the flexibility. Due to the hardware solution the field oriented control can be divided into compute intensive parts and other parts which can be achieved in parallel. So there will be a very good efficiency for the FPGA and microcontroller. The particular thing is that there are costumizable system-on-chip with analog parts. In this case it is possible to combine the software part and the digital logic part with the analog part on one chip. Consequential a low cost solution is possible.
