Engineers working on systems requiring high-speed control algorithms face the challenge of verifying those
controls. One of the steps in the verification process is to test the controls in real time with hardware in a lab, field,
or other test environment. Traditional real-time testing solutions often cannot reach the megahertz range of
performance needed to effectively test these high-speed systems.

In this webinar, we show how you can test these high-speed control algorithms in real time. This solution is based
on xPC Target Turnkey real-time systems incorporating an FPGA board and code generated by Simulink HDL
Coder.

You will learn how you can:

Use Simulink, Stateflow, or MATLAB Function blocks to model the algorithm you want to run on the
FPGA board
Use the Simulink HDL Coder Workflow Advisor process to instantiate your design
Generate a bitstream for the selected FPGA
Create an xPC Target interface subsystem for programming and communicating with the FPGA
