Abstract :
A tool for the synthesis of fuzzy controllers is presented in this paper. This tool takes as input the behavioral specification of a controller and generates its VHDL description according to a target architecture. The VHDL code can be synthesized by means of two implementation methodologies, ASIC and FPGA. The main advantages of using this approach are rapid prototyping, and the use of well-known commercial design environments like Synopsys, Mentor Graphics, or Cadence
