Software Requirements

The coder requires the following MathWorks software:

• MATLAB

• Simulink

• Simulink Fixed Point

• Fixed-Point Toolbox™

The following related products are recommended for use with the coder:

• Stateflow

• DSP System Toolbox (This software is required for generating HDL code for the Digital Filter block in certain cases. See Summary of Block Implementations.)

• EDA Simulator Link (This software is required for FPGA-in-the-Loop)

• Signal Processing Toolbox™

• DSP System Toolbox

Software Requirements for Demos

To operate some demos shipped with this release, the following related products are required:

• DSP System Toolbox

• Filter Design HDL Coder™

• EDA Simulator Link

• Communications System Toolbox™ (required to use Viterbi Decoder demo)

• Image Processing Toolbox™ (required to use Image Reconstruction demos)

VHDL and Verilog Language Support

Before installing the coder , make sure that you have compatible compilers and other tools. Generated code is compatible with HDL compilers, simulators and other tools that support:

• VHDL versions 93 and 02

• Verilog-2001 (IEEE 1364-2001) or later
