Fpga With Processor and DSP TH Final

This document discusses using FPGAs for DSP system design. It describes Xilinx's design flow using ISE Design Suite 10.1 for developing hardware models in Simulink and verifying them using hardware co-simulation. It outlines how to partition systems between hardware and software for optimal performance and flexibility. It also summarizes using embedded processors like MicroBlaze on FPGAs and accelerating processing with custom hardware while maintaining a software interface. Validation of DSP and video hardware using test cases in simulation is also covered.
