Numerical Integration Method in FPGA

[Abhi14ry]

Hi,

Thanks for your suggestion I shifted from totally depending on FPGA to (FPGA - RT) system. I was not able to use SCTL for analog NI-9223 since the program did not allowed it, so I take the reading from my Analog input AI0 and send it to FIFO write in while loop and take the reading and calculation in RT side. The program is working now and Calculating the value.

However, I am getting one issue here. Even though I disconnect my function generator the program in RT main is still running and calculating the value, although there is no graph in the graph chart. I am observing 10.5958 values from my analog AI0 even without connecting the Function Generator.

That is because your code does not know that  you disconnected your function generator, your AI0 is floating and that is the value that you are seeing. 

BTW, didn't you say you need reaction time in us and that you need to output a signal once the conditions are met?

I tried to add Data Selection Logic for this and put the threshold value to 12 but my I am getting half wave as output between the threshold value of 1-5 and beyond 5 all zero.

Can you please suggest me how can I let my program know if its input is disconnected?

Or should I add this filter circuit between the analog input(AI0) and input source(Function Generator)?

Yes I need my reaction time in us and my calculation to stop when it reaches the theoretical value immediately. I tried to implement the calculation directly in FPGA but I did not received any output.

Can you please share your view what can be done here?

Is it possible to do the calculation in FPGA side?
