FPGA prog on labview 7.1

[Bikash]

Hi I am working with LabView 7.1 . I want to do whole programme in FPGA but here I am not able to write any data as 10.55 it always takes as round off value how can I dissolve this problem.

Bikash,

I don't believe floating point numbers were supported in FPGA in Labview 7.1.  Fixed point datatype was introduced in Labview 8.5 to deal with the problem (see FPGA fixed point library), but if you're set on using 7.1, you'll be constrained to doing only integer math on the FPGA. What you can do is acquire raw (integer) data on the FPGA, send it to the host (PC or RT), and convert to a floating point number. 

Cheers,
