Join this webinar as engineers from MathWorks and Intel show you how to use MATLAB and Simulink to model, simulate, and prototype control systems on Intel Cyclone V SoC devices.

Many designers are adopting SoC devices to integrate processor and FPGA functions on a single device, reducing system power, cost, and board size. The complexity implementing algorithms on SoCs, however, creates a challenge for algorithm developers, software developers and hardware designers.

During our presentation, engineers from MathWorks and Intel will demonstrate how to:

• Model and simulate motor control systems to evaluate controller designs before testing in hardware.
• Generate code to program control algorithms into an Intel Cyclone V SoC.
• Use a new MathWorks IP core generation workflow to create cores that implement high-speed I/O processing and offload math-intensive tasks to the FPGA fabric.
• Download programming to an Intel Cyclone V SoC Development Kit and prototype on a single-axis motor control kit.
• Integrate generated HDL code with Intel’s Drive-on-Chip reference design.
