High Speed Data Converter Pro

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ADS5482

Hello,

I am using an ADS5482 interfacing it with an TSW1400 and using the HSDC Pro to visualize the data. Is there a way to send the data from HSDC Pro directly to MATLAB, without saving in a CSV file (preferably real time)? Also can i somehow just bypass the GUI and send the signal directly to MATLAB (my clock frequency is pretty low, pretty sure MATLAB can handle that).

Thanks

    Please have a look at this diretcory within the HSDC Pro installation:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Texas Instruments\High Speed Data Converter Pro\HSDCPro Automation DLL\Manual and Examples

    The manual has a list of the ADC and DAC functions - these are the same as available through the HSDC Pro GUI.

    Unfortunately there is no means to get the data directly into Matlab, you must capture the data and then parse the data file into Matlab for processing.  The Automation DLL controls the HSDC Pro GUI, and you must work within these confines.  There is no direct implementation of the functions of HSDC Pro within the DLL.

    Hello Ken,

    Is it possible to write my own replica of the .rbf file to make MATLAB extract data directly from the USB?

    Thanks,

    Also, do you think it is possible to connect the ADS5482 directly to an FPGA and do some signal processing there? This implies that the FPGA will be able to read the data coming out of the ADS5482, is that feasible?

    Thanks,

    Yes - you would need to make your own firmware to do so and implement the interface from the FPGA to your software.  We do not have the appropriate resources to help you with this so you will have to do this on your own.

    Perhaps you could look at this as a starting point:
