Hardware

Code generator is a powerfull tool used to speed up development process. The great advantage of the technique is to provide a rapid prototyping way to experiment simulated systems and reduce errors introduced by the implementation steps.

The philosophy is to use a simulation tool to design the command part of a system. Once it has been designed and checked, the C code is generated to implement the regulator on the board. This code can be compiled for the controler so that no extra programming work is required to implement the system.

Code generators are delivered with libraries for the simulators, so that the real behavior of the controller can be simulated. This way, the problems introduced by the implantation (sampling frequencies, quantification, computing time,...) are shown by the simulation.

The actually supported tools are MATLAB/SIMULINK and SIMPLORER.
