i have this project, to use an fpga to display signal from an gps module. those anyone knows how to go about it ?
i will appreciate some help
 

Re: FPGA help!!

can you describe your problem in details?

How do you test your signals from the FPGA?
 

FPGA help!!

i have not started the project at all. still researching on the project.
 

FPGA help!!

well,Can you describe the main porpose of your project. For example, the display device, the mode of GPS module and so on
 

Re: FPGA help!!

write down the requirements first categorize into
Hardware
SW

Hi,

You will get the data from the gps module in NMEA format through a UART of the module. There are different strings of data in this format. you can use any of these strings as per your requirements. you will have to write the code for the GPS data parser. Then you can display this data either on your pc or on a LCD display.

1. Design a UART with the same baud rate of the gps module that will receive the GPS data.
2. Design the GPS data parser that will extract the required information from the GPS data.
3. you will require another UART to display the data on PC Hyper Terminal.

Cheers:)
 

FPGA help!!

am only to display the gps data through the fpga 7 segment display unit. what software do i use to program the FPGA, and how do i go about it?
