Interoperability of Reconfiguring System on FPGA Using a Design Entry of Hardware Description Language

Abstract
For a long ago, world of digital design has spread
out in the many major and a lot of logics, approaches, and
theories has been proposed. The digital emerges as a solution
of a daily-life need and applicable on such technology from
the developing devices until software-based. All of the designs
has a significant point on the spesification, integration, and
optimization. The designers have been trying to make a good
designs on both hardware and software, latest both
combinations have been known as the basic idea of hardware/
software co-design. The state-of-the art computer is very
interesting to research because of its implementation can
make changes of the cycle of reconfigurable objects. This paper
presents a comparison of the two role plays in reconfigurable
devices especially FPGA-based, i.e. Altera and Xilinx. The
idea is that of a simple compiler has a good performance designs
for synthesizing Very high speed integrated circuit Hardware
Description Language (VHDL) code as well as the other
complexity software that more powerful. So, this paper
proposes such method as interoperability for reconfiguring
devices to get the point why few of the standard VHDL code
can’t be synthesised in the different compiler of VHDL code
between Xilinx and Altera. The project of compiler softwares
that is observed from Xilinx is ISE and from Altera is Max+Plus
II. Max+Plus II is a low-cost software than ISE Xilinx, although
both Xilinx and Altera devices have a different structure each
other.
