Programmable Logic

Design and develop the custom hardware for the programmable logic (PL) or FPGA component of an SoC application

Analyze a Simulink® model by using the socModelAnalyzer function to estimate the resources used in a model, to compare different architectures, and to understand design tradeoffs. Use the socFunctionAnalyzer function to analyze resources in a MATLAB® function.

The socModelAnalyzer and socFunctionAnalyzer functions create a report detailing the number of operations in a Simulink model or a MATLAB function, respectively.

Use the information in the report to:

  • Decide how to partition your algorithm into software and hardware.

  • Optimize a hardware algorithm.

  • Optimize a software algorithm.

  • Compare different implementations of an algorithm to make informed decisions about design choices.
