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.
