Abstract
Systems and methods for automated control/monitoring code development for ASICs and PLDs are provided. Control/monitor structures associated with a module may be inputted into a standard specification file. One or more default configurations for each control/monitor structure may also be inputted into the specification file. Fields of the specification file may be automatically populated or updated in response to user input in another field, and input and consistency errors may be automatically detected and/or corrected. After a request to build a module is received, one or more source or header output files may be automatically generated using information from the specification file. Automatically generated documentation may also be inserted into the output files, and links may be generated to and from hardware specifications and programmer's manuals.
