As the demand for high speed and high precision machining increases, the fast and accurate real-time interpolation is necessary in modern computerized numerical control (CNC) systems. However, the complexity of the interpolation algorithm is an obstacle for the embedded processor to achieve high performance control. In this paper, a novel interpolation processor is designed to accelerate the real-time interpolation algorithm. The processor features an advanced parallel architecture, including a 3-stage instruction pipeline, very long instruction word (VLIW) support, and asynchronous instruction execution mechanism. The architecture is aimed for accelerating the computing-intensive tasks in CNC systems. A prototype platform was built using a low-cost field programmable gate array (FPGA) chip to implementation the processor. Experimental result has verified the design and showed the good computing performance of the proposed architecture. |
