Examples
There is an increasing demand for high-speed computing and efficient processing of mass data, and the integration level of large-scale integrated circuits almost reaches the bottleneck, and the advantages of optical computing are becoming more prominent.
The digital micromirror device may employ DLP4500 digital micromirror device of TI company, which can rapidly, accurately and efficiently control visible light to generate a pattern. The digital micromirror device driving module is a special driving module realized by an FPGA (programmable gate array) and controls the deflection state of each digital micromirror in the DLP4500 digital micromirror device. The data processing module can be realized by adopting a TMS320 series chip of TI company or a Kintex-7 chip of Xilinx company, and a corresponding circuit can be built by using a 74LS series chip according to the requirement, so that the data transmission, the data reception and the cascade operation are realized.
When two numbers to be calculated in the data processing module are 1 and 1 respectively and OR operation is carried out, the '1 1' is sent to the first digital micro-mirror device driving module, and an OR operation command is sent to the second digital micro-mirror device driving module. The four digital micromirrors of the first digital micromirror device are used as a coding unit to code the light uniformly irradiated by the LEDs on the first digital micromirror device, and the obtained light spot arrangement results are shown in fig. 4 a and 6, and are respectively "off", "on", "bright". The result of the optical coding irradiates on the second digital micro-mirror device, the second digital micro-mirror device takes four digital micro-mirrors as a calculation unit, and the second digital micro-mirror device driving module controls the second digital micro-mirror device to complete logic operation. Since the logical operation is an or operation, the deflection state of the digital micromirror is as shown in fig. 7 b of fig. 5, and only the digital micromirror at the lower right corner of the calculation unit is turned over, the light encoding result of the corresponding digital micromirror irradiated to the calculation unit is reflected to the photoelectric converter to obtain a bright light spot. The photoelectric converter obtains a high level, namely a calculation result is '1', and the result is sent to the data processing module.
The invention can process a large amount of data operation in parallel, for example, when binary numbers of AND operation are 10001010 and 00010101, bit alignment of two data is split into 10, 00, 01, 10, 11, 10 and 11, and the two data are divided into 8 units for optical coding and logic operation. The invention can quickly send the operation result in the data processing module into the system again for operation, and the calculation units formed by different digital micromirrors in the digital micromirror device are mutually independent, so that multiple operations can be simultaneously carried out. The invention can assist the digital micromirror device to perform mass optical computation through a simple integrated circuit, and can form cyclic operation to realize cascade operation.
