EDA Simulator Link 3.0

Mixing a Simulink system model with an HDL simulation as a bidirectional test bench and component.

Each workflow offers full interactive debugging capability in both client and server, enabling simultaneous use of the full features of the MATLAB or Simulink and HDL simulator environments, including viewers, breakpoints, and pattern matching. EDA Simulator Link can interface with multiple HDL entities and multiple HDL simulators from a single MATLAB test bench or Simulink model. Multiple MATLAB test bench functions and Simulink cosimulation blocks can also be used with one or more HDL simulator.

Using EDA Simulator Link, you can set up an efficient environment for cosimulation, component modeling, analysis, and visualization. In this environment, you can:

• Develop software test benches for HDL entities in MATLAB or Simulink
• Include HDL models in larger-scale system models developed and simulated in Simulink
• Perform interactive GUI, batch-based, or shell-based debugging
• Verify, analyze, and visualize HDL implementation simulation results in MATLAB and Simulink
• Generate functional test vectors for manufacturing test programs and verification
