Abstract

The paper is focused on the rapid prototyping for FPGA using the high-level environment of MATLAB/Simulink. An approach using the Xilinx System Generator (XSG) is reviewed on an example of the High-Speed Logarithmic Arithmetic (HSLA) unit. An alternative approach using the combination of the Real Time Workshop (RTW) with the Handle-C compiler for automatized generation of the HDL code is presented. Finally, the possibilities to extend this solution in order to support the run-time reconfigurations are outlined.
