1 TTA Processor Designer (ProDe)

Processor Designer (ProDe) is a graphical application mainly for viewing, editing and printing processor architecture definition files. It also allows selecting implementation for each component of the processor, and generating the HDL implementation of the processor. The application is very easy to use and intuitive, thus this section provides help only for the most common problematic situations encountered while using the toolset.

Input: ADF

Output: ADF, VHDL

The main difficulty in using the tool is to understand what is being designed, that is, the limitations placed by the processor template. Details of the processor template are described in [CSJ04].

1 Usage

Processor Desinger can simply be executed from command line with:
