Design and implementation of WTB controller using SOPC technology

The paper presents a novel WTB controller design method using SOPC (System On Programmable Chip) technology. The WTB Access IP (Intellectual Property), which is designed in Verilog HDL (Hardware Description Language), achieves the function of Encoding, Decoding, FCS (Frame Check Sequence) and Bit Stuffing. Finally the CPU and WTB controller are combined into one Altera’s Cyclone II EP2C8, so this method save PCB space and reduce total power consumption. The paper describes each module’s function and design method specifically. Simultaneously the simulation and two different experiments’ results are given.
