Abstract
A design tool executing on a computer system converts a block model of a circuit design to a high-level language (HLL) specification. The design tool then converts the HLL specification to a hardware description language (HDL) specification. Circuit implementation data is generated from the HDL specification by the design tool, and the circuit implementation data can be used to make an integrated circuit that performs functions specified by the circuit design.
