Abstract:We present an interface synthesis tool (design compiler) which can generate interface circuits automatically to expedite the IP (silicon intellectual property) integration process in SoC designs. The protocol specification issue is first addressed and a programming paradigm in SystemC language is developed. The methodology for interface synthesis is next elaborated. Conventional compiler techniques such as lexical analysis, syntax parsing and code generation are applied plus the new processing specific to inte… Show more
