Critical Design Review27 February 2007 Black Box Car System (BBCS) ctrl + z: Benjamin Baker, Lisa Furnish, Chris Klepac, Benjamin Mauser, Zachary Miers
Project Overview • Recording visual data outside of car • Data constantly stored in RAM • When a crash is detected, data is written from RAM to more permanent Flash storage • User is able to video of events leading up to crash on personal computer
Initial Setbacks • Cannot use PSRAM • ARM9 • Code space • Learning curve (software) • Routing data from camera to RAM

Black Box Block Diagram Power LED/LCD STR9 Microcontroller Computer Flash Storage FPGA Accelerometer Camera RAM
Hardware:Microcontroller • STR9 • Working with STR910-EVAL and STR912 development boards • Take input from accelerometer and reset • Communicate with FPGA via GPIO
ARMProgramming Block Run bootup code Receive I2C input from accelerometer Transfer I2C data to register Monitor register for 4G reading Toggle GPIO high— tell FPGA accident has occurred Stop receiving input
Hardware:Camera • ST VS6524 • Using x24 development board • 320 x 240 • 8 frames per second • RGB 565 • Focal length of 30mm to infinity
CameraImage Size Memory: 2^20[addresses] * 16[bits/address] * 2 [memory chips] = 33554432 bits Image: 320(width) * 240[height] * 16 [bits/pixel] = 1228800 bits Storage amount: Memory / Image [# of frames] = 27.3067 frames Length of recording time: 27 frames * (1 / 8 [frames per second]) = 3.375 seconds
CameraSchematic • 8 data lines (output) • HSYNC (output) • VSYNC (output) • CLK (input) • PCLK (output) • SDA & SLC (I2C)
Hardware:Accelerometer • ST LIS3LV02DQ • Working with EK3LV02DQ (ST) development board • Will communicate with processor via I2C • 4G will trigger data storage
AccelerometerI2C Interface • Using I2C to interface directly with the microcontroller • Tie the CS pin high to select I2C instead of SPI • LIS3LV02DQ is an I2C slave • 2 lines of interest with I2C bus; Serial Clock Line (SCL) and Serial DAta Line (SDA) • SDA is bidirectional • Both lines have built in pull up resistors
Hardware:Memory • Cypress CY7C1061AV33 • 1M x 16 SRAM • Asynchronous • 2 chips • Implement circular buffer • Will store 27 frames • At 8 frames per second this will be 3.37 seconds of video

Hardware Power Requirements: • Camera: 2.8V @ <50mA • ARM9: 3.3V @ 200mA Max (I/O’s) and a 1.8V Core supply @ <20mA • SRAM: 2.8V @ <35mA total • Xilinx Spartan 3: 5V @ 2.5A max (should be well under 1A for our application).
LDO Linear Regulators: • 3.3V Supply: STMicroelectronics LD1117 can supply up to 1A with a dropout voltage of 1.15V. • 2.8V and 1.8V Supply: STMicroelectronics LK112 can supply up to 200mA with a dropout voltage of 0.35V.
Supply Locations: • 5V-4A Switching converter on eval board. Run power wires to the other PCB’s. • LDO Linear regulators on the PCB’s where required.
Power supply backup: • 12V battery that cuts in when the main supply fails. • The only time the backup supply is needed is when an accident actually occurs.
Supply Transients, Load dump, and mutual coupling. • Could safeguard all of these but we only really need transient protection and supply reverse polarity protection.
Hardware:FPGA • Digilent XC3S200 Spartan-3 development board • Will route data from camera to RAM via I/O lines • Store entire frame on development board, then move entire frame from FPGA SRAM to our large SRAM • Move images from SRAM to flash memory
