Speedgoat - HDL Coder Integration Packages

FPGAs are ideal for applications such as rapid control prototyping, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) plant simulation, high-frequency signal acquisition and generation, and signal processing algorithms, to name just a few. You can achieve fast, closed-loop sample rates given the parallel nature of FPGAs. Simulink Real-Time^™ and HDL Coder^™, together with Speedgoat real-time systems, create a complete and seamless integrated real-time software and hardware environment for rapid control prototyping and HIL simulation. Simulink Real-Time provides a high-performance, host-target prototyping environment that enables users to connect Simulink^®/Simscape^™ models to physical systems running C code on a CPU and HDL code on a FPGA. Speedgoat offers a wide range of optimized hardware sufficiently equipped with high-speed analog and digital inputs and outputs. Running Simulink designs on Simulink-programmable FPGA I/O modules is fast and easy and no VHDL knowledge is required. With HDL Coder Integration Packages (HCIP), you can:

• Automatically generate HDL code and synthesize floating-point or fixed-point Simulink models
• Automatically build and download real-time applications to the Simulink-programmable FPGA I/O module installed in a Speedgoat target machine, or operating on a stand-alone carrier
• Run the application in real-time with the click of a button, log data, and monitor and define parameters.
