FPGA based unknown circuit application
« on: August 28, 2022, 05:40:31 am »
Hello Everyone.
I'm analyzing a piece of circuit that have FPGA in its core to understand its operation. But I've encountered a part of this circuit that I have no idea about it. There is an input signal from a pick-up coil with 2.5V offset DC after amplification stage and a comparator that compare this signal with a 2.5VDC reference voltage and outputs a pulse train that just fluctuate like a noise. I'm wondering what is the main idea behind this section? Is it for noise removal? If yes, What is the main algorithm to do this?
I attached the schematic of circuit in this post and really appreciate if anyone can help me to resolve this problem.

This is most likely the error signal in a control loop. The signal is ikely to be samples and filtered to generate the error term..
Gaze not into the abyss, lest you become recognized as an abyss domain expert, and they expect you keep gazing into the damn thing.

Thanks @hamster_nz . I think so. It can be an error predicting routine for removing error or noises and finally reaching higher resolutions in pick-up coil signal. But I have no idea about existing algorithms and methods. Do you have any thought about methods of such control loop?

You may or help us figure out what this signal is for if you told us what this coil is picking up exactly. Maybe a partial schematic or something.
