      FPGA-Based System Combines Two Video Streams to Provide 3D Video

      Video systems are increasingly prevalent in automotive, robotics, and industrial domains. This growth into nonconsumer applications resulted primarily from the introduction of an HDMI® standard and faster, more efficient DSPs and FPGAs. This article outlines the requirements for achieving stereoscopic vision (3D video) using analog or HDMI video cameras.

      Successive-Approximation ADCs: Ensuring a Valid First Conversion

      Successive-approximation analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) with up to 18-bit resolution and 10-MSPS sample rates meet the demands of many data-acquisition applications, including portable, industrial, medical, and communications. This article shows how to initialize a successive-approximation ADC to get valid first conversions after power-up and initialization.

      Highest Power Density, Multirail Power Solution For Space-Constrained Applications

      As the size of communications, medical, and industrial equipment continues to decrease, power management becomes an increasingly important consideration. This article looks at applications for highly integrated power management solutions, the advantages these new devices bring for powering FPGAs and processors, and a design tool that helps designers to quickly implement a new design.

      MEMS Microphones, the Future for Hearing Aids

      Driven by aging populations and increased hearing loss, the market for hearing aids continues to grow, but their conspicuous size and short battery life cause people to look for smaller, more efficient, higher quality devices. At the start of the signal chain, microphones sense voices and other ambient sounds, so improved audio capture can lead to higher performance and lower power consumption.

      High-Performance Data-Acquisition System Enhances Images for Digital X-Ray and MRI

      Digital X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging, and other medical devices require high-performance, low-power data-acquisition systems to meet the demands of doctors, patients, and manufacturers in a competitive marketplace. This article showcases a signal chain that is ideal for multichannel applications, as well as those that require low noise, high dynamic range, and wide bandwidth.

      Some Tips on Making a FETching Discrete Amplifier

      Low-noise amplifiers for photodiode, piezoelectric, and other instrumentation applications typically call for extremely high input impedance, low 1/f noise, or sub-picoamp bias currents that may not be met with available integrated products. This article discusses the challenges of designing a low-noise amplifier using discrete components, with emphasis on input-referred noise and offset voltage trimming.

      FPGA-Based System Combines Two Video Streams to Provide 3D Video

      By Witold Kaczurba

      Introduction

      Video systems, already ubiquitous in consumer applications, are increasingly prevalent in automotive, robotics, and industrial domains. This growth into non-consumer applications resulted primarily from the introduction of an HDMI standard and faster, more efficient DSPs and FPGAs.

      This article outlines the requirements for achieving stereoscopic vision (3D video) using analog or HDMI video cameras. It describes an FPGA-based system that combines two video streams into a single 3D video stream for transmission through an HDMI 1.4 transmitter, and a DSP-based system that saves DMA bandwidth compared to that normally required for receiving data from two cameras. Furthermore, it shows one method for achieving a side-by-side format for use with 3D cameras or systems requiring 3D video.

      General Overview

      Stereoscopic vision requires two video cameras separated by approximately 5.5 cm, the typical spacing between a person’s eyes, as shown in Figure 1.

      Figure 1. Two cameras on a stand aligned for stereoscopic vision.

      The high-level block diagram shown in Figure 2 uses two synchronized video cameras that use the same video standard, two video decoders, and an FPGA. To ensure the exact
