SystemVerilog DPI (Direct Programming Interface) is an interface which can be used to interface SystemVerilog with foreign languages. These foreign languages can be C, C++, SystemC as well as others. DPIs consist of two layers: a SystemVerilog layer and a foreign language layer. Both the layers are isolated from each other.
The Verilog Procedural Interface (VPI), originally known as PLI 2.0, is an interface primarily intended for the C programming language.It allows behavioral Verilog code to invoke C functions, and C functions to invoke standard Verilog system tasks.
A dynamic array works much like an unpacked array, but offers the advantage of being dynamically allocated at runtime (as shown above.) Whereas a packed array's size must be known at compile time (from a constant or expression of constants), the dynamic array size can be initialized from another runtime variable, allowing the array to be sized ...
Verilog was created by Prabhu Goel, Phil Moorby and Chi-Lai Huang between late 1983 and early 1984. [3] Chi-Lai Huang had earlier worked on a hardware description LALSD, a language developed by Professor S.Y.H. Su, for his PhD work. [4]
C-to-Verilog tool from University of California, Irvine; Altium Designer 6.9 and 7.0 (a.k.a. Summer 08) from Altium; Nios II C-to-Hardware Acceleration Compiler from Altera; Catapult C tool from Mentor Graphics; Cynthesizer from Forte Design Systems; SystemC from Celoxica (defunct) Handel-C from Celoxica (defunct) DIME-C from Nallatech
A section of code that performs such initialization is generally known as "initialization code" and may include other, one-time-only, functions such as opening files; in object-oriented programming, initialization code may be part of a constructor (class method) or an initializer (instance method).
Value change dump (VCD) (also known less commonly as "variable change dump") is an ASCII-based format for dumpfiles generated by EDA logic simulation tools. The standard, four-value VCD format was defined along with the Verilog hardware description language by the IEEE Standard 1364-1995 in 1996.
Verilator converts synthesizable Verilog to C++, while C++ library could be compiled into a MEX file using MATLAB interface to C++. This is how Verilog designs can be directly simulated from MATLAB. Using compiled C++ models with MATLAB is faster than using co-simulation interfaces with a separate hardware description language (HDL) simulator ...
