Examples and How To
Code Generation
Create and Set Up Your Project
At the MATLAB® command line, enter:
HDL Code Generation from System Objects
This example shows how to generate HDL code from MATLAB® code that contains System objects.
Generate Instantiable Code for Functions
You can use the Generate instantiable code for functions option
to generate a VHDL® entity or Verilog® module for each function.
Integrate Custom HDL Code Into MATLAB Design
Include pre-existing HDL code in your MATLAB design
Configure clock enable to run at design base rate or input data rate.

External Component Generation
Enable MATLAB Function Block Generation
During HDL code generation, your MATLAB algorithm must go through the floating-point to fixed-point conversion process, even if it is already a fixed-point algorithm.
System Design with HDL Code Generation from MATLAB and Simulink
This example shows how to generate a MATLAB Function block from a MATLAB® design for system simulation, code generation, and FPGA programming in Simulink®.
