Accessing Data on the FPGA or SDRAM from a PC

For small chunks of data(not 40MB) a workaround is to use signaltap to capture data then store it in pc.

I believe DSP builder got a function for that or you can do that manually as follows:

set all signaltap data to signed values. then right click mouse and tick generate text file.

remove all header iinformation from text file to leave the data only.

then in matlab load your file:

load filename.txt

this genertes a matrix called filename

then choose the data e.g.

data1 = filename(:,1); all rows of column 1 and process it...

You may be able to trigger the signaltap at various points of time to concatenate into larger data set.
