DirectDSP
Method #1 is represented by
DirectDSP® software, which
can be called from MATLAB programs. This Library contains a number of hardware-related
functions that can be of use to MATLAB programs concerned with data acquisition or DSP.
Low-level functions include onboard DSP control, download of DSP chip program files, onboard
memory transfer, register and digital I/O access, sampling rate control, analog I/O parameter
control, and DSP code configuration. High-level functions include waveform file acquisition,
waveform file playback, continuous function generation, digital oscilloscope, spectrum analyzer,
stimulus & response, and more. Over 70 types of DSP/analog hardware types can be accessed from
MATLAB; click here for a partial list of supported hardware
when the DirectDSP is combined with Hypersignal® Macro software. Click on the following to see examples of .m programs that use the DirectDSP:
DirectDSP is actually a standard Windows library which is intended to be called from C/C++ and
Visual Basic programs, but has been modified to accept a MATLAB interface also. Thus, a proven,
off-the-shelf product is available for MATLAB users--unlike the current set of .MEX and other
specialized tools which work only with MATLAB, and thus cannot benefit from the full range of
Windows users.
