An Experimental Electronic Board ADF339 for Analog and FPGA-Based Digital Filtration of Measurement Signals

Abstract

This work introduces and examines a new programmable electronic system, Board ADF339, designed for filtering analog measurement signals of low frequencies. The system operates in a mixed mode in collaboration with a digital controller implemented on the myRIO-1900 FPGA module. It enables the digital selection of the type and frequency settings of the UAF42 integrated circuit. In the technical implementation section, electronic filter and phase shifter circuit diagrams are presented, along with the digital counterpart of the analog filter. Tests of this system were conducted on signals generated using a function generator, which was followed by the filtration of signals occurring in real laboratory setups. A series of real responses from three different laboratory systems and a measurement system utilizing LabVIEW FPGA virtual instruments are demonstrated. After computing SNR indicators for noisy waveforms, the application scope and usability of the board are highlighted.
