SystemVerilog DPI Component Generation

Export Simulink Subsystem or MATLAB Function Using DPI Interface

You can export a Simulink® subsystem or MATLAB® function with a DPI interface for Verilog® or SystemVerilog simulation. The coder wraps generated C code with a DPI wrapper accessed through a SystemVerilog thin interface function.

HDL Verifier™ supports SystemVerilog DPI component generation with these products and platforms.

Generate SystemVerilog DPI Testbench in HDL Coder

If you have an HDL Coder™ license, you can generate a SystemVerilog DPI testbench. Use the testbench to verify your generated HDL code using C code generated from your entire Simulink model, including the DUT and data sources. To use this feature, your entire model must support C code generation with Simulink Coder. You can access this feature in HDL Workflow Advisor under HDL Code Generation > Set Testbench Options, or in the Model Configuration Parameters dialog box, under HDL Code Generation>Test Bench. Alternatively, for command-line access, set the GenerateSVDPITestBench property of makehdltb (HDL Coder). For an example of SystemVerilog Testbench generation using HDL Coder, see Verify HDL Design Using SystemVerilog DPI Test Bench (HDL Coder).
