CPU开发工具链的自动设计

Automatic Design of CPU Development Tool Chain

EDA技术的成熟和进步,缩短了微处理器硬件设计和综合的周期。同时,开发工具链设计的自动化,已成了高效率、高质量嵌入式微处理器设计的重要内容。该文提出了采用体系结构描述语言(ADL)实现微处理器开发工具链自动设计的有效方法。介绍了这种方法在CK*CORE开发工具链设计中的应用情况,并探讨了体系结构描述语言的一些问题及进一步发展方向。

The development of EDA technology has shortened the cycles of microprocessor hardware design and synthesis process. At the same time, the automatic design method for the development tool chain beoames more and more important for high performance and high efficiency embedded microprocessor design. An automatic design method based on ADL(architecture description language) for development tool chain is proposed in this paper. The implementation of this method in CK*CORE development tool chain design process is introduced. Finally, some current issues of ADL and corresponding developing directions are explored.
