Continuous Test and Verification

Once you create your model in Simulink, you can use this validated design as an executable specification or reference to generate test signals to streamline the verification of your hardware or embedded software designs.

The Embedded IDE Link™ CC integrates MATLAB with Code Composer Studio, the Texas Instruments (TI) software development environment, and TI DSP hardware for real-time analysis, testing, and verification of TI DSP programs. It simplifies debugging of real-time algorithms on the TI C2800, C5000, C6000, and OMAP processor families.

The EDA Simulator Link™ MQ integrates MATLAB and Simulink into the hardware design flow for field programmable gate array (FPGA) and application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) development. It provides a fast bidirectional link between MATLAB and Simulink and Model Technology's HDL simulator, ModelSim. It enables direct cosimulation and lets you efficiently verify and cosimulate ModelSim RTL-level models from within MATLAB and Simulink.

You can verify hardware and software prototypes by using MATLAB to acquire data and live signals using the Data Acquisition Toolbox and the Instrument Control Toolbox.

A number of third-party products provide additional interfaces to hardware and embedded software tools.
