HI, I'm building a biotic weight estimator that uses EMG (electromyography) to detect muscle currents from someone's biceps.

I need to implement a DSP fucntion on my altera board to process the EMG signal.

I've never used FPGAs b4. Anyone can give me advice on where I should start? or where I can look up information on using my altera board for DSP?

Thanks!

Have a look at http://www.opencores.org. Without knowing exactly what you need, it is impossible to tell you how to do it.

If the processing is fairly simple and does not change, then you can probably implement it directly in VHDL or Verilog. If it is complex then you probably need to implement a CPU of some sort and write the processing code for that CPU.
