After years of overclaiming and underperforming, ESL design has a role in many design flows. But has anyone noticed?
It was a shimmering promise on the horizon: As SOCs (systems on chips) became more complex, we would simply move from RTL (register-transfer level) to the next-higher level of abstraction-what some experts called ESL (electronic-system-level) design. We would express the behavior of the system in a high-level language, such as C+ +. We would model and explore the system at that level, partition it into hardware and software components, and then push a button. Scripts and ESL-synthesis tools would digest our ESL design and ...
