matlab 2014b HDL Coder Users Guide

Matlab 官方有关于HDL coder开发的详细技术文档， HDL Coder可以把Simulink模型、MATLAB代码和Stateflow框图生成位真、周期精确、可综合的Verilog和VHDL代码，很适合用于FPGA/ASCI的快速开发，里面还有大量的例程等等ContentsHDL Code generation from MATLaBMATLAB Algorithm DesignData Types and scope1-2Supported data TUsuppyted data type1-3Scope for variables1-3Operators1-4Arithmetic operate1-4Relational operators1-4ogical Operators1-5Control flow statements1-6Vector Function Limitations related to Control1-7PersistentⅤ ariables1-8Persistent Array variables1-10Complex data Type Support1-11Declaring complex signaIs1-11Conversion Between Complex and real signals1-12Support for vectors of Complex Numb1-12ystem Objects1-14Why use System objects?1-14Predefined System Object1-14User-Defined System ob1-14Limitations of HDL Code Generation for SystemObjects1-15System object Examples for HDL Code Generation.. 1-16Predefined System Objects Supported for HDL CodeGeneration1-17Load constants from a mat-file1-18Generate Code for User-Defined System Objects1-19How To Create a User-Defined System object1-1User-Defined System object Example1-19Map Matrices to ROM1-22Fixed-Point bitwise Functions1-231-23Bitwise Functions Supported for HDl Code Generation 1-23Fixed-Point Run-Time Library functions1-29Fixed-Point function limitations1-33Model State with Persistent variables and SysteObjects1-34Bit Shifting and bit rotation1-8Bit Slicing and Bit Concatenation1-41Guidelines for Efficient hdL code1-43MATLAB Design Requirements for HDL CodeGeneration1-44What is a matlab test bench?1-45MATLAB Test Bench Requirements and bestractices1-46MATLAB Test Bench requirements1-46MATLAB Test bench best practices1-46ContentsMATLAB Best Practices and Design Patterns forHDL Code generation2Model a counter for hdl code generation2-2MATLAB Counter2-2MATLAB Code for the counter2-3Best Practices in this Example2-4Model a state machine for HDL Code Generation2-5MATLAB State machinesMATLAB Code for the Mealy State MachineMATLAB Code for the moore state machine2-7Best practic2-9Generate hardware Instances For local functions2-10MATLAB Local functions2-10MATLAB Code for mlhdlc two counters. m2-10Implement RAM USing MATLAB Code2-13Implementation of RAM2-13Implement RAM Using a Persistent Array or Systemobject Properties2-13Implement RAM Using hdl.
