Included RTL Generators
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
A Generator can be thought of as a generalized RTL design, written using a mix of meta-programming and standard RTL.
|
|
This type of meta-programming is enabled by the Chisel hardware description language (see :ref:`Tools/Chisel:Chisel`).
|
|
A standard RTL design is essentially just a single instance of a design coming from a generator.
|
|
However, by using meta-programming and parameter systems, generators can allow for integration of complex hardware designs in automated ways.
|
|
The following pages introduce the generators integrated with the Chipyard framework.
|
|
|
|
Chipyard bundles the source code for the generators, under the ``generators/`` directory.
|
|
It builds them from source each time (although the build system will cache results if they have not changed),
|
|
so changes to the generators themselves will automatically be used when building with Chipyard and propagate to software simulation, FPGA-accelerated simulation, and VLSI flows.
