Control software RT-XSG

analysissimulationprogramming

RT-XSG offers ready to use Simulink function blocks for FPGA Hardware-in-the-Loop and Rapid Control Prototyping simulation. It also manages the configuration of the FPGA, as well as the transfer of high-bandwidth data between real-time RT-LAB and HYPERSIM simulation models and the user-defined custom system running on the FPGA. Benefits Facilitate FPGA Programming The RT-XSG library contains several function blocks for FPGA programming similar to MATLAB Simulink function. Flexibility The user has the freedom to generate a custom, application specific model to be implemented onto the FPGA device. RT-XSG blockset provides signal conditioning and conversion modules that can then be attached to the custom model for real-time, hardware-in-the-loop data processing. Powerful While RT-LAB allows the user to distribute the computation of a complex plant or controller model on multiple computation nodes based on PC hardware, RT-XSG uses dedicated FPGA processors for sub-microsecond computation loops. While conventional processor designs operate sequentially on a set of instructions, FPGA processors perform operations in parallel. This makes them ideally suited for very fast simulation of loosely-coupled models. Some examples of applications already implemented using RT-XSG are: High-speed digital and/or analog waveform generators (resolver, encoder, PWM, sine, SPI, etc) Signal processing, windowing and analysis Embedded simulation of stiff (high-speed dynamics) models, such as electrical motor and power converter models Timing analysis
