Adaptive photon correlator on basis of CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device) and FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array)

Abstract

The invention relates to an adaptive photon correlator on the basis of a CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device) and an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array), which mainly comprises an FPGA chip circuit, an FPGA clock, reset and reconfiguration circuit, a serial port and USB (Universal Serial Bus) circuit and an encrypting circuit, wherein the FPGA chip circuit is used for realizing a plurality of independent digital correlators; the FPGA clock, reset and reconfiguration circuit is used for realizing driving and synchronous reset of each circuit module in the FPGA and driving of reconfiguration of each circuit module in the FPGA; the serial port and USB circuit is used for realizing communication between the FPGA and a computer and between the CPLD and the computer; and the encrypting circuit is used for encrypting a program configurated on an FPGA chip. For the adaptive photon correlator on the basis of the CPLD and the FPGA, which is disclosed by the invention, a mode that a plurality of configuration chips dynamically selects to configurate one FPGA by the CPLD is adopted, the adaptive dynamical regulation of a configuration scheme of the photon correlator is realized and an obtained correlation function is optimized.
