Condition based engine oil degradation monitoring system, synthesis and realization on ASIC

This paper presents the realization and synthesis process of condition based monitoring system of lubricant degradation in Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) for condition based monitoring system of lubricant degradation. With the awareness of the environmental effect of wasted lubricant, a condition based monitoring has been explored recently. For this work, an enhancement of a new algorithm for ASIC implementation is introduced. The Least Square Method (LSM) is used as an algorithm for lifetime prediction of lubricant where it written in verilog language including the FLC. The functional simulation had been applied for functional checking in Quartus II software. Then, a Design Compiler from Synopsys is used as a floor plan simulator and RTL implementation of the FLC and LSM. By implementing the prediction algorithm and decision making, the usage of lubricant can be prolonged and it capable to be implemented in a real monitoring system. By using ASIC, the design is predicted to use 26954.386357μm² of cell area and a total dynamic power of 2.8590mW.
