A register code file generation method, device and electronic equipment

Abstract

The invention discloses a register code file generation method, device and electronic equipment. The method includes: extracting key information corresponding to a register code file of a register to be developed from a register summary file, and the register to be developed is a or multiple, if there are multiple registers to be developed, then multiple registers to be developed belong to the same module, wherein the register summary file is a text file, independent of the register design environment and verification environment, and stores several Register parameter information of a register to be developed; and use a text conversion tool to convert the key information into a register code of the register to be developed and obtain the register code file of the register to be developed. The method provided by the invention not only can automatically generate register code files of a large number of registers according to the register summary file, but also effectively reduces the work burden of code writing and subsequent maintenance of designers and verification personnel.

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
