Designing with DSP Builder for Intel FPGAs

Course Objectives

Learn the timing-driven Simulink® design flow to implement high-speed DSP designs. 
This course focuses on implementing DSP algorithms using the advanced blockset capability of DSP Builder—an interface between Quartus Prime software & MATLAB and Simulink from MathWorks.
You'll analyze & design your DSP algorithm using the DSP Builder advanced blockset in MATLAB & Simulink.
You'll explore architecture & performance tradeoffs with system-level constraints.
Also you'll verify functionality & performance of generated hardware in the Quartus Prime software.
Finally, you'll speed design time by incorporating ready-made ModelIP cores in your design.
