Labview FPGA for beginners.

[vakost]

Hello.

I have no idea what labview is and how to work with this. I have had some experience with Xilinx 12.1 EDK (microblaze and VHDL).

I tried to install labview and labview fpga module. It asked for some drivers and I continued, the program said that it will ask for the drivers later.

But, beside that, do you have any training flow to suggest? Should I start with labview or is it not necessary? After that, should I start with CVI or FPGA? I am confused. Any help is welcomed!

Thanks,

Bill.

See this video's to get start with labVIEW and more video's you can find in youtube. Also, get in touch with forum especially about FPGA questions or read the history question targeting to your design area.

I never use FPGA codes or concepts in labVIEW but I am looking to learn now.

Thanks for the answer.

I re-read my post and I see that I forgot to say that I am going to start working with FPGA module in my company. The final target is to manage to have a RIO PXI card working with a microblaze.

So, you think that labview is necessary?

LabVIEW FPGA is an extension to the LabVIEW programming language. Any code you create to operate on the RIO board (and therefore within the onboard FPGA) will be written in the LabVIEW G language. I would definitely suggest you start with the basic LabVIEW training material and then move on to the LabVIEW FPGA training material. Good luck, and like the previous person mentioned, utilize the help and forum resources if you run into trouble.

Thanks people.
