Using LogiBLOX for HDL Designs

The tools for synthesis-based designs are described in the following subsections.

Module-inferring Tools

Base Express and Foundation Express infer LogiBLOX components where appropriate. Use the HDL Editor to create the HDL file; the Design Wizard can help you with this process.

Module-instantiation Tools

You can instantiate the LogiBLOX components in your HDL code to take advantage of their high-level functionality. Define each LogiBLOX module in HDL code with a component declaration, which describes the module type, and a component instantiation, which describes how the module is connected to the other design elements. For more information, refer to the“HDL Designs with Black Box Instantiation” section of the “Design Methodologies - HDL Flow” chapter.
