HDL Coder Evaluation Reference Guide

Getting started guide for learning and evaluating HDL Coder

Guidelines for getting started using HDL Coder to generate VHDL or Verilog to target FPGA or ASIC hardware. The document provides practical guidance for:

* Setting up your MATLAB algorithm or Simulink model for HDL code generation
* How to create HDL-ready Simulink models, Stateflow charts, and MATLAB Function blocks
* Tips and advanced techniques for HDL code generation
* Code generation settings for specific FPGA/SoC targets, including AXI interfaces
* Converting to fixed-point or utilizing native floating point
* Optimizing for various goals and targets
* Verifying your generated code

It also includes examples to illustrate selected concepts.
