About This Training

dSPACE offers a range of real-time components with FPGAs that can be programmed in a block-oriented environment. The AMD Vitis™ Model Composer HDL Library, previously known as Xilinx System Generator (XSG), is integrated directly into MATLAB®/Simulink®, making the process of modeling FPGA implementations similar to that of modeling microprocessors, thereby accelerating development and testing phase.

The course will equip you with the skills needed to work with the dSPACE XSG Electric Components Library to embed electric drive applications on FPGA-based real-time hardware. This training uses SCALEXIO-based platform with a DS2655 FPGA Base Board and DS2655M1 Multi-I/O FPGA Module.

You will learn to:

  • Integrate inverter, motor, sensor, and mechanical models directly on the FPGA
  • Run these models in open or closed loop control
  • Modify the components’ parameters during run time
This training builds on previous knowledge.
