Signal Tap and Quartus II FItter

Hi, I've completed a simulation scheme and everything is working. Now I have to test it on my Altera DE2 board so i've changed my scheme with real GPIO input and a signal tap block at the end o...

Hi,

I'm trying to capture a signal with the Data Conversion

HSMC Mezzanine Board connected to the Cyclone 3 FPGA dev. board.

The signal will be connected via SMA Cable to the HSMC A/D port.

I'm using the dsp builder to simulate the signal. I don't have much experience with the tool but I would like to know:

I want to use an "input block" to capture the external 14-Bit signal. I've assigned the pin of the A/D port with a Quartus II Pinout Assignment block.

However: the input block still wants an input signal! What do I connect there?

I don't want to use an internal source. I will use an SMA cable from one D/A to another A/D to simulate the external signal. Can someone help me on this? I've attached the .mdl
