There are two methods for using devices on FPGA for PYNQ: the integrated microprocessor (PS side) and the programmable logic (PL side). In order to maximize the use of the FPGA, this article shows how you can use the programmable logic for common devices such as SPI, I2C and UART.

We have used this flow also for SMART-IO Project. If you have lost the article about SMART-IO, follow this link!

You can find every design in this article as Github project in the MakarenaLabs Github company.

Introduction

In this article about shared memory, we are going to show in broad terms how two different programming languages, such as JavaScript and C++, can interact with each other. Specifically, we are going to introduce the concept of shared memory and illustrate an example in which two processes interact through this data exchange system.
In the first part we will give some useful definitions to better understand what we are going to explain later in the second part, in which we present some examples of commented code.

Introduction

The role of precision farming in the actual agronomic plants is crucial for increasing productivity and improving control accuracy. In this article, we propose a smart device, Arduino based and open source, for controlling a little greenhouse of carnivorous plants, called Nebul.IoT, that manages temperature and humidity and, in critical situations, controls the internal nebulization system.

IoT is an acronym for the Internet of Things, it represents a new working model based on connected devices which is used in modern companies to create new revolutionary applications.

The term [1] was coined to Kevin Ashton nowadays co-founder of Auto-ID Labs who used it for the first time in 1999 in a proposal of a pioneering project to monitor the performance and yields of the assembly lines of Procter & Gamble (P&G) through the sharing of RFID devices on the network.

After 30 years of SPS IPC Drives, the trade show changed the name into SPS – smart production solutions reflecting the digital transformation that occurs in automation technology.

Digital Twin (DT) in relation to Cyber-Physical-Systems (CPS) are among the main themes of this digital transformation anticipated by the Industry 4.0 initiative.

According to DirectIndustry e-magazine interview to Sylke Schulz-Metzner, Vice President SPS Mesago Messe Frankfurt GmbH, “digital twins is sure to play a large role this year and in the future at SPS…In the future, it will be as difficult to imagine the world
