Simulink
MathWorks
Empower innovation with seamless simulation and efficient prototyping.
Utilize Simulink to develop and test your system before transitioning to real hardware, giving you the chance to delve into and implement creative designs that might often be overlooked, all without needing to write C, C++, or HDL code. By creating models for both the system under evaluation and the physical plant, you can explore a wider range of design possibilities. Your entire team can take advantage of a cohesive multi-domain platform that simulates how all components of the system interact with one another. Additionally, you can compile and distribute your simulation outcomes with colleagues, suppliers, and clients, facilitating collaborative insights. This strategy significantly reduces the risk of expensive prototypes by enabling experimentation with scenarios that could be perceived as too uncertain or impractical. Incorporate hardware-in-the-loop testing and rapid prototyping to verify the success of your design. This methodology allows for traceability from the early stages of requirement gathering through to design and code generation. Instead of manually producing countless lines of code, you can automatically generate high-quality C and HDL code that reflects your original Simulink model. Ultimately, deploy this code onto your embedded processor or FPGA/ASIC for flawless integration and functionality. This thorough process not only simplifies development but also markedly improves efficiency across the entire project timeline, paving the way for enhanced innovation. Furthermore, it allows teams to quickly iterate on designs, leading to quicker time-to-market for new products.
