Real-Time Deployment
Hardware-in-the-loop simulation workflow, host-to-target hardware interface,
run-time parameters
Real-time targets use fixed-step solvers that also have a fixed computational cost. When your model accurately reproduces your reference results with a fixed-step solver, you can use Simulink® Real-Time™ to download and execute a real-time application that you generate from your Simscape™ model or HDL code. You can also check for simulation overruns and change run-time parameters for your plant-based application on a real-time target. HIL processes on a target CPU can run at time steps as small as 25 μS. To reach time steps below 1 μS, you must deploy your model to FPGA.
