Course Description

This custom course provides a foundation for using System Generator, the overall MATLAB and Simulink tools, along with essential Digital Signal Processing (DSP) techniques for Xilinx FPGAs. The course begins with a detailed discussion of FPGA resources specific to DSP design and optimization.  The body of the course explores a variety of filter techniques with emphasis on optimal implementation in Xilinx devices and continues with an examination of FIRs and FFTs.  The course introduces System Generator for modeling cost-efficient DSP Systems and exporting IP for integration using Vivado. The course is complemented by hands-on exercises to reinforce the concepts learned. 

 

After completing this comprehensive training, you will have the necessary skills to:

  • Describe the advantages of using FPGAs over traditional processors for DSP designs
  • Describe the System Generator design flow for implementing FPGA based DSP functions.
  • Utilize fixed point binary arithmetic and identify how to use this knowledge to create efficient designs in FPGAs
  • Recognize how both the CLB slices in FPGAs and the more advanced DSP48s are used to implement DSP algorithms
  • Run Hardware Co-simulation
  • Explain the dataflow through the device and how to use distributed memory, block RAM, registers, and SRLs to properly implement these designs
  • Construct different FIR filter and FFT implementations and how to optimize these implementations in the FPGA
  • Design a processor controllable interface using System Generator
