In this manuscript we present the implementation in FPGA of ANFIS system (Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference Systems) for a two-input architecture with three membership functions per input and nine fuzzy rules, used to set up a photovoltaic panel emulator. The starting point is the photovoltaic panel electric analog model simulated with ELDO, a tool of Mentor Graphics Suite, having as inputs irradiation and temperature from a meteorological data base so we can obtain the short-circuit current (Isc) and open circuit voltage (Voc) of the panel. With this information, ANFIS was trained within Matlab environment to approximate the photovoltaic panel response. The training was carried out for both, current and voltage, independently, and once achieved minimum error parameters, they were downloaded into the FPGA implemented architecture in order to assess its performance.
