Stratix II Professional Filtering Lab
Installing the Stratix II Professional Filtering Lab Files
These instructions in this application note assume that you have already
installed the software provided with the DSP Development Kit, Stratix II
Professional Edition on your PC.
f For installation instructions, see the DSP Development Kit, Stratix II
Professional Edition Getting Started User Guide.
When you install the software from the DSP Development Kit, Stratix II
Professional Edition CD-ROM, the design files for the Stratix II Professional
filtering lab are installed in the directory structure shown in Figure 1.

This application note provides the following exercises:
■ “Exercise 1: Review the Filtering Lab Design” on page 4—Review the
filtering lab design using DSP Builder.
■ “Exercise 2: Simulate the Model in Simulink” on page 21—Analyze
the DSP Builder-generated models and simulate the filtering lab
design in Simulink.
■ “Exercise 3: Perform RTL Simulation (Optional)” on page 25—
Perform RTL simulation using the ModelSim simulation tool.
■ “Exercise 4: Analyze & Compare the Results in Hardware” on
page 29—Configure the Stratix II device with the filtering lab design
and use the SignalTap II read-back feature in DSP Builder to capture
data from internal device nodes while the design runs at system
speed. You then compare the results from SignalTap II analysis with
the simulation results from Exercise 2 to verify that the design is
functioning correctly in hardware.
