Safety, availability, and cost considerations can make performing thorough tests of embedded control devices using the complete system impractical. Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation is a real-time test technique used to test these devices more efficiently. During HIL test, the physical system that interfaces...

Many moderate size Programmable Logic Device (PLD) designs, especially those in control plane applications, consist of a number of interfaces interconnected via an onchip bus to a microprocessor that may be on- or off-chip. Although each interface is often relatively simple, the task of building all the on-chip interconnections...
