Abstract :
A methodology for the design of microelectronic subsystems in a mechatronic environment is presented, and its application to various problems is described. Several strategies from hardware-in-the-loop simulation over rapid prototyping of ASIC-based systems with field programmable gate arrays to the design of application-specific integrated processors are offered. The efficiency of the design system is demonstrated for three mechatronic applications: a self-controlled clutch, ignition control of a combustion engine, and a turbine compressor unit state estimator
