Abstract

This paper describes the development and use of a tool for model-driven, automated software development to control electronics design by using VHDL-AMS. As test applications serve alternative electrical power systems. The different parts of such a design process will be described. The paper focuses on the way of the code generator operation, which transfers the hardware description language VHDL-AMS into the corresponding C code for programming the control electronics.
