Abstract

This chapter addresses HW/SW interface implementation and modeling. As introduction, basic concepts regarding HW/SW interfaces on both HW and SW side are presented in detail. The focus is on several aspects of register and bit field read/write access, address mismatch, synchronization, and data alignment. The HW micro-architecture is outlined in block diagrams, the SW code is listed in C-code snippets. As new contributions, data flow abstraction for HW/SW models and consistently derived RTL models, TLM models, and C code by using a template approach are presented.
