Physical prototyping of microprocessor devices

Abstract

Microprocessors and microcontrollers are one of the most dynamically developing areas of modern electronic technology. The development of computer technology has led to the development of description languages for digital equipment. Hardware description languages are an integral part of CAD, especially for complex circuits such as specialized integrated circuits, microprocessors, and programmable logic devices. Modeling using HDL (Hardware Description Languages) allowed engineers to work at a higher level of abstraction than modeling at the circuit level, and therefore simplify the modeling of projects consisting of thousands of transistors and more.
