Method and apparatus for implementing a parameterizable filter block with an electronic design automation tool

摘要

An electric design automation (EDA) tool for generating a design of a system on a field programmable gate array. (FPGA) includes a graphical user interface to create a block based schematic. The EDA tool includes a library that includes a parameterizable filter block selectable by a designer to include in the block based schematic to represent a component in the design that filters data. The EDA tool includes a design adjustment unit to automatically modify previously programmed and selected components and wires in the block based schematic without input from the designer upon determining a change made to the parameterizable filter block by the designer.
