Project Assistance

Post by Sarah17 »

I purchase DE0-Nano-Altera Cyclone IV FPGA starter board along side BMP085 Barometric Pressure/temperature/Altitude senser, Adafruit Ultimate GPS logger shield and ADXL 335-5V ready triple accelerometer (+- 3g analog out). I want to use these components to get a device for data acquisition. Please can you give me a clear guide on how best to wire/conect these components.

Is there some reason you chose the FPGA instead of an Arduino? We have libraries, sample code, and tutorials available for using GPS, BMP085, and accelerometer with Arduino. We do not have any comparable software or tutorials for the FPGA.

The GPS shield is designed for use with Arduino and is not compatible with the FPGA. An Arduino Uno has more than enough computing power to make a data acquisition system using these devices.
