Abstract
A system and method for processing sample data employing hardware, such as a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), to process the sample data in small pipelined steps. The processing includes a circular buffer where the read and write of data is synchronous, preventing buffer overrun or data loss. This pipeline processing approach allows increasing data acquisition channels or additional processing steps without limiting processing speed.
