A Lookup Table Based Low Resource Usage Waveform Data Compression Block in FPGA
Abstract
aA lookup table based lossless data compression scheme suitable for FPGA implementation, with very low silicon resource usage, is developed. Different algorithms can be implemented by simply changing the contents of the lookup tables in the functional block while keeping the logic circuits unchanged. It exhibits performance comparable to the zip compression software in Linux distributions. The compression block can fit into almost any existing FPGA used in the online data acquisition systems of high energy physics experiments. The decompression process can be performed in either software or in FPGA firmware, allowing users to process compressed data flexibly.
