- MATLAB Coder: Generates C/C++ code from MATLAB algorithms, typically for use in applications outside of MATLAB.
- Simulink Coder: Also known as Real-Time Workshop, it generates C/C++ code from Simulink models for simulation acceleration and hardware-in-the-loop testing.
- Embedded Coder: An add-on for MATLAB Coder or Simulink Coder that offers additional optimizations and targeting for embedded systems, including compliance with industry standards and support for Processor-in-the-Loop testing.

All three toolboxes belong to MathWorks and enable code generation for embedded systems, they serve distinct purposes and offer varying levels of complexity:
1. MATLAB Coder:
- Generates ANSI C/C++ code from MATLAB algorithms and scripts.
- Ideal for basic code generation where Simulink models are not involved.
- Offers functionalities like:
- Code optimization for different embedded targets.
- Integration with libraries for specific hardware platforms.
- Fixed-point conversion for improved hardware compatibility.
2. Simulink Coder:
- Generates ANSI C/C++ code from Simulink models.
- Captures the dynamic behavior and feedback loops inherent in Simulink models.
- Offers functionalities like:
- Automatic code generation from Simulink blocks and connections.
- Support for various signal types and data structures.
- Real-time code execution capabilities.
3. Embedded Coder:
- Extends the capabilities of both MATLAB Coder and Simulink Coder for production-ready embedded systems.
- Adds functionalities like:
- Code verification and validation tools to ensure code quality and adherence to standards.
- Code documentation generation for improved maintainability.
- Target-specific optimizations and hardware abstraction layers for efficient deployment.
- Integration with testing frameworks and debuggers.
Interoperability:
- MATLAB Coder can be used standalone or as a prerequisite for both Simulink Coder and Embedded Coder.
- Simulink Coder requires MATLAB Coder as it relies on generated code for Simulink blocks.
- Embedded Coder builds upon the features of both MATLAB Coder and Simulink Coder, adding functionalities for production-grade code.
Choosing the Right Tool:
- Use MATLAB Coder for simple embedded applications based on MATLAB algorithms.
- Use Simulink Coder for applications requiring the graphical modeling and simulation capabilities of Simulink.
- Use Embedded Coder for production-ready systems demanding robust code generation, verification, and target-specific optimizations.
Additional Points:
- All three toolboxes offer code generation for various targets, including microcontrollers, DSPs, and FPGAs.
- Each toolbox includes extensive documentation and examples to guide users through the code generation process.
- MathWorks provides technical support and training resources for all three toolboxes.
I hope this helps clarify the distinctions and interoperability between the three toolboxes.
