Register-code-file generating method and device and electronic device

Abstract

The invention discloses a register-code-file generating method and device and an electronic device. The method includes the steps that key information corresponding to register code files of one or more to-be-developed registers is extracted from register summary files; if the multiple to-be-developed registers are arranged, and the multiple to-be-developed registers belong to a same module, wherein the register summary files are text files, and the text files are independent of the register design environment and verification environment, and store register parameter information of the multiple to-be-developed registers; the key information is converted into register codes of the to-be-developed registers through text conversion tools, and the register code files of the to-be-developed registers are obtained. According to the register-code-file generating method, a large quantity of register code files of the registers can be automatically generated according to the register summary files, and workloads of code writing and later maintenance of designers and verification people are also reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of digital integrated circuit design, in particular to a register code file generation method, device and electronic equipment. Background technique [0002] At present, when designing the register code in the chip, manual coding is often used, that is, the designer and the verification personnel need to manually write the register design code and the register description code during verification, so there will be the following problems: First, The number of registers in the chip is often relatively large, and each register contains multiple field information, such as length, position, attribute, and initial value, etc. It will be cumbersome for designers or verifiers to write codes for each register, and the workload will be large and time-consuming. Second, the design and implementation of registers in the chip and the simulation model are usually carried out by designers and verification personnel separat...

[0002] At present, when designing the register code in the chip, manual coding is often used, that is, the designer and the verification personnel need to manually write the register design code and the register description code during verification respectively, so there will be the following problems: First, The number of registers in the chip is often relatively large, and each register contains multiple field information, such as length, position, attribute, and initial value, etc. It is cumbersome for designers or verifiers to write codes for each register, and the workload is large and time-consuming. Second, the design and implementation of the registers in the chip and the simulation model are usually carried out by designers and verification personnel respectively, and the number of registers in the chip is relatively large, which will bring a lot of repetitive design and verification work, and the error rate is relatively high. At the same time, the cycle of code stability is longer; moreover, during the chip design process, registers may be increased or decreased, or certain fields in registers may be modified, and when registers are added or decreased or registers are modified, the designer And verification personnel need to rewrite the design code and the description code required by the simulation model, which greatly increases the difficulty of manual coding and later maintenance, and brings a workload to designers and verification personnel
