A method for converting a C-type programming language program to a hardware design, where the said program is an algorithmic representation of one or more processes. The C-type programming language program is compiled into a hardware description language (HDL) synthesizable design. The compiler categorizes variables as using either implicit memory or custom memory. Different accessor functions are used depending on which type of memory is used. The programming language may use ANSI C and the HDL may be Verilog Register Transfer Level (RTL). The hardware device generated from the HDL synthesizable design may be an Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) or a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA).
