Chapter 1
Hardware Design Using System
Generator
System Generator is a system-level modeling tool that facilitates FPGA hardware design. It
extends Simulink in many ways to provide a modeling environment that is well suited to
hardware design. The tool provides high-level abstractions that are automatically
compiled into an FPGA at the push of a button. The tool also provides access to underlying
FPGA resources through low-level abstractions, allowing the construction of highly
efficient FPGA designs.
A Brief Introduction to FPGAs Provides background on FPGAs, and discusses
compilation, programming, and architectural
considerations in the context of System Generator.
Design Flows using System
Generator
Describes several settings in which constructing
designs in System Generator is useful.
System-Level Modeling in
System Generator
Discusses System Generator's ability to implement
device-specific hardware designs directly from a
flexible, high-level, system modeling environment.
Automatic Code Generation Discusses automatic code generation for System
Generator designs.
Compiling MATLAB into an
FPGA
Describes how to use a subset of the MATLAB
programming language to write functions that
describe state machines and arithmetic operators.
Functions written in this way can be attached to
blocks in System Generator and can be automatically
compiled into equivalent HDL.
Importing a System Generator
Design into a Bigger System
Discusses how to take the VHDL netlist from a System
Generator design and synthesize it in order to embed
it into a larger design. Also shows how VHDL created
by System Generator can be incorporated into a
simulation model of the overall system.
Configurable Subsystems and
System Generator
Explains how to use configurable subsystems in
System Generator. Describes common tasks such as
defining configurable subsystems, deleting and
adding blocks, and using configurable subsystems to
import compilation results into System Generator
designs.
