Projects for Benns Technologies
Name of Project : MP3 Codec
Team Size : 5
Role : Concept Study, Requirement Analyses, Development of Specification, Design, Coding.
Details : Digital compression of audio data is important due to the bandwidth and storage limitations inherent in networks and computers. Algorithms based on perceptual coding are effective and have become feasible with faster computers. The ISO standard 11172-3 MPEG-1 layer III is a perceptual codec that is presently very common for compression of CD quality music. An MP3 decoder has a complex structure and is computationally demanding.
We have analysed several algorithms suitable for implementing an MP3 decoder, their advantages and disadvantages with respect to speed, memory demands and implementation complexity. We have also designed and implemented a portable reference MP3 decoder in Matlab.
Name of Project : Power MOSFET Modeling
Team Size : 1
Role : Study, Specification Analyses, Coding, Testing and Documentation.
Client : IXYS Corporation, USA.
Details : Understanding the Mosfet behavior from the data sheets and then developing the parameters in {Spice for simulation of the device
Name of Project : PCI Bus
Team Size : 7
Role : Study, Specification Analyses, Coding, Testing and Documentation.
Details : The PCI IP core (PCI bridge) is a bus bridge device between the WISHBONE SoC bus and the PCI local bus. Both sides of bridge can operate at totally independent clock frequencies. It consists of two independent units, one handling transactions originating on the PCI bus, the other one handling transactions originating on the WISHBONE bus. Performance features include 32-bit bus interfaces on both sides, high level of performance and flexibility like burst data transfers, memory access optimizing command usage etc. The code is completely GENERIC ,which makes the core easily retargetable for any FPGA or ASIC technology.
Projects for Future Techno Designs Pvt. Ltd.
Name of Project : MCS 51
Team Size : 30
Role : Study, Specification Analyses, Coding, Testing and Documentation.
Details : Development of the Serial Port of Intel 8051 micro-controller of MCS 51 family using State Machine (FSM) for Transmission and Reception of Serial Data with a variable Baud Rate and four different modes of operation for both normal as well as multiprocessor environment and to write a RTL code for the above design using Verilog HDL.
Name of Project : FDC 8277
Team Size : 4
Role : Study, Specification Analyses, Coding, Testing and Documentation.
Details : Design and Development of Floppy Disc Controller Intel 8277 for Buffering and converting Parallel Data from CPU to Serial Data and Encoding using FM/MFM as specified by user and also decoding the Serial Data from the Disk, buffering and converting it into Parallel data for the use of the CPU and write a RTL code for the above design using Verilog HDL.
3. Name of Project : DMA Controller
Team Size : 4
Role : Study, Specification Analyses, Coding, Testing and Documentation.
