Performance real-time target machine

The Performance real-time target machine with Intel i3, i7 or Xeon CPUs and optional FPGAs is Speedgoat's mainstay target computer for office and lab use and can be placed on a desk or installed in a rack. It is used in a broad range of application areas and industry sectors, such as vision and image processing, rapid control prototyping or plant simulation with hardware-in-the-loop (HIL).

A vast range of I/O connectivity and industrial protocols are supported, both on-board the target machine, as FPGA code modules and in the form of I/O modules. Up to 50 I/O modules can be installed by using additional expansion units. Custom rack systems can also be built.

This target machine is expressly designed for Simulink Real-Time in close partnership with MathWorks for a seamless workflow.
