FPGA在医疗器械中的应用

Application of FPGA to medical equipment

FPGA是一种用于开发数字电路的功能强大的可编程芯片,具有容量大、系统可靠、便于修改的优点,它的设计主要通过软件进行,且易学易用,因此基于FPGA的开发较之应用传统数字电路和ASIC芯片具有速度快、成本低的特点,已越来越多地应用到数字系统的开发中。另一方面,医疗器械中对数字控制系统有着大量运用,因此,FPCA可以应用在医疗器械的几乎所有领域中。

FPGA is a kind of powerful programmable chip used in the development of digital system, and it has such advantages as large capacity, reliability and easy modification. The design of FPGA system is mainly through software method which is easy to grasp. Compared with legacy discrete circuit or ASIC, more and more FPGAs are adopted in digital systems tbr low cost and fast speed. On the other hand, digital system plays an important role in control system of medical equipments, so FPGA is expected to be widely used in almost all fields of medical equipment.
