This thesis reports the design and implementation of a microprocessor based
interface unit of a navigation system. The interface unit is composed of a TFT
display screen for graphical interface, a Controller Circuit for system control, a
keypad interface for external data entrance to the system and a power interface
circuit to provide interface between the battery of the navigation system and the
Controller Circuit. This thesis reports high speed design of the Controller Circuit and
generation of system functions. Main functions of the interface unit are
communicating with navigation computer and providing a graphical interface to the
driver of the vehicle containing the navigation system. Communication and graphical
data preparation functions are implemented through the use of a microprocessor.
Driver function of TFT display is implemented through the use of a Field
Programmable Gate Array, which is programmed using the Very High Speed IC
Description Language (VHDL).
Keywords: Navigation System, Interface Unit, Controller Circuit, Image Generation
