Get Started withSoC Blockset

SoC Blockset™ provides Simulink^®blocks and visualization tools for modeling, simulating, and analyzing hardware and software architectures for ASICs, FPGAs, and systems on a chip (SoC). You can build your system architecture using memory models, bus models, and I/O models, and simulate the architecture together with the algorithms.

SoC Blockset lets you simulate memory and internal and external connectivity, as well as scheduling and OS effects, using generated test traffic or real I/O data. You can quickly explore different system architectures, estimate interface complexity for hardware and software partitioning, and evaluate software performance and hardware utilization.

SoC Blockset exports reference designs for Xilinx^®and Intel^®FPGA devices and SoC platforms, including Zynq^®-7000, UltraScale+™, and Intel SoC FPGAs. These reference designs can be used with Xilinx and Intel design tools.

Featured Examples

Streaming Data from Hardware to Software

Presents a systematic approach to design the data-path between hardware logic (FPGA) and embedded processor using SoC Blockset. Applications are often partitioned between hardware logic and embedded processor on a system-on-chip (SoC) device to meet throughput, latency and processing requirements. You will design and simulate the entire application comprising of FPGA & processor algorithms, memory interface and task scheduling to meet the system requirements. You will then validate the design on hardware by generating code from the model and implementing on a SoC device.
