Speedgoat - Performance Real-Time Target Machine
Scalable high performance real-time test system with seamless MATLAB & Simulink workflow integration. Ideal for desktop/lab use and rack installation.
The Performance real-time target machine (P3) is ideal for hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation and rapid control prototyping, and provides unrivaled MATLAB & Simulink workflow integration through Simulink Real-Time.
This test system is equipped with a powerful multi-core CPU and optional Simulink-programmable FPGAs, enabling you to achieve closed-loop sample rates up to the MHz range.
With the option to install over 40 I/O modules in expansion units, the Performance real-time target machine offers extensive scalability covering thousands of I/O signals.
This test system is ideal to place on your desk, in a lab, or to mount in a rack.
This target machine supports MATLAB R2021a or newer. The previous Performance real-time target machine (P2), supporting MATLAB R2020a or newer is still available.
Built for High-Performance
Execute real-time applications on multiple high performance CPU cores and on one or multiple inter-connected FPGAs, at closed-loop sample rates up to the MHz range.
Vast Range of Supported I/O Connectivity and Protocols
Choose from a selection of over 150 I/O module types, pre-installed into your test system by Speedgoat, and configurable from within MATLAB & Simulink.
Unrivaled Model-Based Design Workflow Integration
Benefit from the seamless MATLAB & Simulink workflow integration for Rapid Control Prototyping and Hardware-in-the-Loop Testing.
Versatile Installation Options
This test system is ideal to place on your desk or in a lab, or to mount in a rack. I/O can either be accessed at the front, or at the rear. See configuration options.
Long-Term Availability and Quality Services
Test systems are typically used for many years. Speedgoat hence assures long-term availability of components, continued compatibility with latest MATLAB releases, and responsive application support.
Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) Testing
- Test and verify embedded controllers with a digital or a hybrid physical and digital power HIL twin of your plant.
- Run complex Simulink plant models on powerful multi-core CPUs and FPGAs
- Automate testing by defining and running test cases with Simulink Test or XIL-enabled test automation platforms
- Include virtual ECUs with restbus simulation and insert faults
Rapid Control Prototyping (RCP)
- Expedite control design development by using the test system as a powerful and flexible prototype of your controller in R&D.
- Connect the test system with the same I/O ultimately provided by your future embedded controller to connect with your physical plant.
- Use MATLAB & Simulink to design your controls, and use Simulink Real-Time to deploy the real-time application to the test system. Iterate through designs and monitor their performance. Automate the testing process.
- Evolve your control designs while keeping core parts running on the embedded controller using bypassing. The embedded controller remains part of the test setup while new features are executed on the real-time test system, all perfectly connected and synced.
