How can ISE communicate with Matlab ?

[Vonn]

Do any body know if the ISE can communicate some way with matlab ..
i know that there is a tool can do it but iam not sure which one

version maltab for ise 11

It's called System Generator from Xilinx. http://www.xilinx.com/xlnx/xil_prodcat_product.jsp?iLanguageID=1&iCountryID=1&title=system_generator

ise与matlab

why to do so ?

The System Generator for DSP tool is one of the industry's most popular DSP design tools for FPGAs. It automatically translates DSP systems developed using MATLAB® and Simulink® from The MathWorks into highly optimized VHDL and IP cores for Xilinx® FPGAs.

Designers can design and simulate a system using MATLAB, Simulink, and Xilinx library of bit/cycle-true models. Then it can greatly shorten the path from design concept to working hardware.

Use system generator or DSP builder

What happens if you need to modify the vhdl code? Is it easy to understand ( structure, labels, comments) or it is just as thousands of port maps?

For what i've heard from Mathworks, those auto-generated VHDL codes are NOT meant to be modified manually by designers...

Re: ISE and Matlab ?

there is no need to change auto-generated code. but, sometimes there is a need to use project generated in sysgen as a module in bigger design (which for example employ multiple clock domains...)... only if so, you should change some of the autogenerated files.
