Research on design method of multichannel CCD signal simulator

CCDs used in video process circuit of satellite cameras are expensive and possible to be damaged while testing.To satisfy the needs for testing video process circuit of satellite cameras,a design is provided to achieve a multichannel CCD signal simulator.Up to 16 CCD signal channels can be generated.An FPGA of Xilinx XC5V was adopted to make a center unit,the logic of CCD signals generating is developed with VHDL.The RS232 interface is used to receive instructions from the host computer,and different types of signals are generated and outputted depending on the instructions.Practical applications show that the CCD simulator is flexible and can work well.The design of the CCD simulator meets the requirements of testing video process circuit in several different types of satellite cameras.
