Pulse Real-Time Target Machine

Speedgoat has launched the latest addition to its portfolio of real-time target machines. The Pulse test system is designed for control design innovation and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing in automotive, aerospace, and other industries that demand versatility. The solution supports engineers working with an agile process, accelerating development iterations.

The new test system is best suited for control design innovation and entry- and component-level hardware-in-the-loop testing in a desktop or lab environment. For control design applications, it acts as a prototype controller on which users can run their control designs for development and testing. In HIL applications, it runs the digital twin of the component or sub-system with which the controller under test interacts. Users can switch seamlessly between desktop simulation and real-time testing.

For evolving and changing I/O requirements, users can easily expand the Pulse real-time target machine on their own with up to eight I/O modules. The new test system supports a wide range of I/O connectivity and protocols.

The Pulse real-time target machine comes with a multiprocessor system-on-chip (SoC) which includes both a CPU and an FPGA. With the FPGA, engineers can run real-time applications at closed-loop sample rates in the MHz range.
