Abstract: In the world of multiple application based product it is very much a mandatory to have multiple devices connected to a system, this includes peripherals following different communication protocols as well. These requirements give rise to the need for an intermediate system which can act as a bridge between two devices following different communication protocols. Today a system is connected to a number of devices and makes the communication smooth and fast. Communication protocols such as I2C, SPI and UART protocols are commonly used protocols. The PC, ADC and DAC will require an interface for communication between them. It is used to minimize system-level interconnect. FPGA is mainly uses serial communication to communicate with peripherals. Therefore serial communication plays vital role in embedded system design. In this paper we focus on the implementation of protocol converter to convert standard protocol of one device to the protocol of other device [SPI, UART, and I2C].The proposed work simulated by using VHDL code in Xilinx 14.7i and implemented on Spartan 3E FPGA.
