Abstract :
Details are presented of the DAC (DSP ASIC Compiler) silicon compiler framework. DAC allows a non-specialist to automatically design DSP ASICs and DSP ASIC cores directly form a high level specification. Typical designs take only several minutes and the resulting layouts are comparable in area and performance to handcrafted designs
