Abstract
A method is for designing an accelerator for digital signal processing including defining a software programmable fully pre-laid out macro by pre-laying out with a fixed topology a control logic of the DSP accelerator to obtain a fully pre-laid out control logic. The method further includes defining a hardware programmable partially pre-laid out macro by customizing a configurable layout area, thereby mapping a computational logic based on computation kernels related to an application of the DSP accelerator. A partially pre-laid out computational logic is therefore obtained.
