Achieving STARC and DO-254 Compliance Using HDL Coder Generated Code

By Kiran Kintali, MathWorks


This article explains how to achieve compliance with Semiconductor Technology Academic Research Center (STARC) design style guides and theDO-254standard using HDL Coder™ and Model-Based Design. HDL Coder generates target-independent, synthesizable Verilog®and VHDL®code from MATLAB®functions, Simulink®models, and Stateflow®charts. The generated HDL code is bit-true and cycle-accurate to source designs, and can be targeted to FPGAs and ASICs for both prototyping and production.

The article outlines major steps involved in generating standards-compliant ASIC and FPGA designs using HDL Coder, and explains how HDL Coder features can be used to enhance and facilitate critical stages of compliance testing in ahardware designworkflow.
