4.4.4. Adding Generic HLS Components
- Identify and add the HLS file.
- Import an already compiled file from a previous Platform Designer session or project, or Compile the HLS file in Platform Designer.
Once the component has been imported or compiled, Platform Designer performs the following actions:
- Imports an .ip resulting from the HLS compilation to the component name defined in the HLS file.
- Sets the HDL entity name and HDL compilation library to the component defined in the HLS file.
- Adds the .ip file to the empty generic component.
- Adds paths to the .ip and _hw.tcl output files to the Platform Designer search path to enable instantiation.
- Populates the signals and interfaces of the component from the .ip file.
After compilation, the HLS compiler creates a <component_name>.prj folder with the following directories:
Folder | Description |
---|---|
/component | Contains IP and _hw.tcl files. |
/quartus | Contains Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition project files that instantiate the HLS component. You can use this to verify timing and logic usage. |
/reports | Contains a compilation report in HTML. |
/verification | Contains verification files, if you decided to create a verification executable. |
