A CCD Experimental platform for large telescope in Antarctica based on FPGA
2014
The CCD , as a detector , is one of the important components of astronomical telescopes. For a large telescope in
Antarctica, a set of CCD detector system with large size, high sensitivity and low noise is indispensable. Because
of the extremely low temperatures and unattended, system maintenance and software and hardware upgrade become hard
problems. This paper introduces a general CCD controller experiment platform, using Field programmable gate array
FPGA, which is, in fact, a large-scale field reconfigurable array. Taking the advantage of convenience to modify the
system, construction of driving circuit, digital signal processing module, network communication interface, control
algorithm validation, and remote reconfigurable module may realize. With the concept of integrated hardware and
software, the paper discusses the key technology of building scientific CCD system suitable for the special work
environment in Antarctica, focusing on the method of remote reconfiguration for controller via network and then
offering a feasible hardware and software solution.
