Interface graph
Interface Graph:
- The order generator determines the order of transfers between nodes mapped to software and hardware
- The interface synthesis tool generates the global controller using this order of transfers.
- It also interface glue logic (latches, logic to generate ready signal) for the hardware modules.
A netlist that describes the connectivity between hardware modules, the processor, and the global controller is next generated. A standard placement and routing tool can be used to synthesize the layout for the complete system.
