Hi,
Iam a newbie in FPGA world. I have experience in PLC's and Arduino microcontroller. I want to develop a system which takes an incremental encoder output as input and will be able to count up/down. The system must be capable of giving specific number of pulses when the above count reaches a specific value. All these values will be specified by setting variables inside memory via tcp communication.
For implimenting this, where to start with?. Which FPGA/microcontroller should I use?. The problem with arduino is that the microcontroller misses some pulses and the whole process go wrong. Iam assuming that if we impliment this logic in an FPGA, it will not be affected by other logic additions in the same IC. The frequency of the pulses may go upto 1Mhz.
Kindly advise
