Review on TargetLink by Gregory Shin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great tool for code generation and verification

I like the fact that I can create a model of my system in Simulink and then use TargetLink to generate code without having to write the code manually. TargetLink can generate a lot of code and I like that it can be run in parallel so that I can run a lot of code in the same time. The only thing I dislike is that TargetLink can generate a lot of code that I do not need. I would like to have the ability to filter out the code I do not need. If I am using ModelSim to simulate my system I can use TargetLink to generate code. I can use the code to create the model in Simulink and verify that it is correct. I can then use the code to verify my system in ModelSim.

Pros
  • This tool saves us considerable amount cost as we no longer go back into VHDL/Verilog coding languages when our designs change from requirements changes etc., nor does this software require long development cycle
Cons
  • It is hard to say
