DSP Builder for Intel® FPGAs

Overview

DSP Builder for Intel® FPGAs is a digital signal processing (DSP) design tool that enables Hardware Description Language (HDL) generation of DSP algorithms directly from the MathWorks Simulink* environment onto Intel® FPGAs. The tool generates high quality, synthesizable VHDL/Verilog code from MATLAB functions, and Simulink models. The generated Register Transfer Level (RTL) code can be used for Intel® FPGA programming. DSP Builder for Intel® FPGAs is widely used in radar designs, wireless and wireline communication designs, medical imaging, and motor control applications.

Features

DSP Builder for Intel® FPGAs enables the implementation of DSP designs with high performance and productivity benefits. Here are some highlighted features:

  • Import RTL into your MathWorks* MATLAB/Simulink environment for co-simulation and code generation.
  • Go from high-level schematic to low-level optimized VHDL targeted for Intel® FPGAs.
  • Perform high-performance fixed- and floating-point digital signal processing (DSP) with vector processing, such as complex IEEE 754 single-precision floating point.
  • Perform push-button design migration to Intel's hard floating-point DSP block in Intel® Arria® 10 and Intel® Stratix® 10 devices.
  • Build custom arithmetic logic unit (ALU) processor architectures from a flat data-rate design with ALU folding.
  • Perform high-level synthesis optimizations, auto-pipeline insertion and balancing, and targeted hardware mapping.
  • Build custom fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithms using a flexible ‘white-box’ fast Fourier transform (FFT) toolkit with an open hierarchy of libraries and blocks.
  • Use a designer-specified system clock constraint to automatically pipeline, time-division multiplex/fold, and close timing.
  • Access advanced math.h functions and multichannel data.
  • Generate resource utilization tables for all designs without a Intel® Quartus® Prime Software compile.
  • Automatically generate projects or scripts for the Intel® Quartus® Prime Software, Timing Analyzer, Platform Designer (formerly Qsys), and ModelSim*-Intel® FPGA Edition.

What's New in 21.3

Read release notes

  • DFT (Discrete Fourier Transform) block with example to demonstrate use in 5G wireless.
  • Read Access (RA) controls for memory blocks shut off clock to memory to reduce power consumption. FFT IPs automatically use the RA feature where appropriate.
  • Reduced overhead for back-to-back DSP Builder FFTs.
  • DSP Builder Pro edition support for Intel® Cyclone® V (compile generated RTL with Quartus Prime Standard).
  • Install DSP Builder stand-alone to create and simulate DSP Builder models and generate RTL (Quartus-related features not available). Later connect Quartus to DSP Builder by setting environment variable.

Getting Started

  • Supported with the Intel® Quartus® Prime Design Software Pro/Standard Edition software.
