RTeasy - An Algorithmic Design Environment on Register Transfer Level

Hagen Schendel, Carsten Albrecht, Erik Maehle

Abstract

Current developer tools and HDLs for system design are powerful instruments and support a variety of abstraction levels but they are too complex for didactic purposes. This paper describes the RTeasy IDE, an algorithmic design environment on register transfer level that has been developed to provide a simple system-design tool for didactic purposes to be used e.g. in introductory courses in computer engineering and digital design. The RTeasy tool suite includes an HDL, a simulator and further design features. As an example, it is applied to the design flow of a shift-multiplier.
