Question

I was wondering if its possible to generate vhdl code from a schematic in xilinx. I know that the reverse is feasible. I want this to be done cause i am curious how the code will be like after i have completed the datapath of a mips R2000 and also its an easy way to modify large schematics by changing key lines in the code. I have used both schematics and vhdl but i d like to see the whole datapath written in a vhdl. I use Xilinx 12.3. Thanks!

Answer 1

The option is in the design menu -> select a .sch file in the implementation window and then click the “View HDL functional model”. This will generate the vhdl code for the selected schematic. 😮
