FPGA NEXYS A7 Board and Labview

[marwa.mhmd.hassan]

Hello, 

I am working on a project and I have to decide which FPGA board to use, depends on the ability to display and monitor the result on Labview, I have chosen NEXYS A7  FPGA by Digilent and would like to know If I am able to connect it with Labview 2023 Q Community edition, in other way, is it supported like some Arduinos and other microcontroller boards, I couldn't find any Info. regarding to that on Forum.

If No, please if anyone try other FPGA boards and is able to interface it with Labview, I would like to know which board. 

Thanks

The CommunityEdition is not intended to work with LabVIEW-RT and LabVIEW-FPGA modules. It only has modules/toolkits to handle Arduino boards ("Hobbyist toolkit")!

This is the stopping wall in your request…

As long as your "FPGA board" brings a serial (or Ethernet-based) communication port you can connect it with your computer and use LabVIEW (even the CommunityEdition) to handle the communication and to display the data provided by your board.

What exactly do you want to achieve with using LabVIEW? Do you want to program the FPGA or do you "just" want to handle communication with an external device?

The main goal of using  Labview is to act as a display and monitor tool. I have programmed the FPGA to do specific task, then held a communication between the FPGA and PC by sending the recorded data, displaying it on LABView pre-created GUI VI.
