You don’t usually think of simulating Verilog code — usually for an FPGA — as a visual process. You write a test script colloquially known as a test bench and run your simulation. You might get some ...

Programming an FPGA with Verilog looks a lot like programming. But it isn’t, at least not in the traditional sense. There have been several systems that aim to take C code and convert it into a ...

SANTA CRUZ, Calif. — Aiming to simplify HDL code development and documentation, Orion Consulting Inc. (Austin, Texas) is rolling out Visual RTL, a tool that generates synthesizable Verilog code from ...

HDL Coder generates target independent, synthesizable Verilog and VHDL code from MATLAB functions, Simulink models, and Stateflow charts. The generated HDL code is bit-true and cycle-accurate to ...

The world of open-source software is making inroads into areas beyond operating systems, Internet and desktop applications, GUIs and scripting languages. One less well-known area of open-source ...
