using Nios II

C2H Compiler

Nios

II embedded processor C-to-Hardware (C2H) acceleration

compiler is a tool that boosts the performance of your time-critical ANSI

C functions by converting them into hardware accelerators in the FPGA.

Features

■ Push-button acceleration of ANSI/ISO C code

■ GHz performance with m power consumption

■ Tight integration with software design flow

■ Efficient latency-aware scheduling and pipelining of memory

transactions

■ Direct connection of hardware accelerators to CPU's memory map

■ Seamless support for pointers and arrays

This tool is provided as a evaluation option with the Nios II Embedded

Design Suite (EDS). Altera Mandelbrot C2H is a ready-to-run demo that

showcases the benefits of hardware acceleration using the Nios II C2H

Compiler.

Examples

The following system design has been provided for demonstration

purposes:
