Custom processors design using Python-based high level synthesis Diseño de procesadores a la medida usando síntesis Python de alto nivel

It is explained a computational tool, PyHDL, conceived to assist the designer of custom processors. PyHDL takes a description given in Python, an extremely friendly language that allows writing descriptions as close to natural language descriptions as possible with current technology in programming languages. The tool carries out the generation of a synthesizable VHDL equivalent of the description given by the user, which is directly implementable in hardware, along with the necessary files to simulate and implement the design. The purpose with this tool is to facilitate the design of embedded systems and make it more accessible to a greater number of students, engineers, and users in general.
