Microchip FPGA and SoC Devices
R2026bHDL Coder™ Support Package for Microchip FPGA and SoC Devices enables you to generate HDL IP cores from MATLAB® and Simulink® designs and integrate them into Altera® FPGA designs using Microchip Libero® SoC. You can generate synthesizable HDL code, package it as an IP core, integrate it into your Libero project, and program Microchip devices.
The support package includes board definition files for supported Microchip FPGA and SoC boards and supports FPGA‑in‑the‑Loop (FIL) simulation, which enables you to verify HDL designs by running them on development boards using MATLAB or Simulink testbenches.
This support package includes reference designs for popular Microchip development kits, so you can generate HDL code and port mappings to I/O, AXI registers, and DDR memory interfaces. It additionally supports the HDL Coder custom reference design API to develop reference designs for a variety of development boards based on Microchip devices.
To deploy your design to the Microchip FPGA or SoC device, you must install the HDL Coder Support Package for Microchip FPGA and SoC Devices. For installation information, see HDL Coder Supported Hardware.

Get Started with IP Core Generation for Microchip PolarFire SoC Devices
Use the hardware-software co-design workflow to blink LEDs at various frequencies on the Microchip PolarFire® SoC Icicle kit.
Generate Board-Independent HDL IP Core for Microchip Platforms
Generate an HDL IP core for generic Microchip platform. You generate an HDL IP core for an LED blinking model, then integrate this HDL IP core into a target Microchip platform of your choice. You can generate a board-independent custom IP core to use in an embedded system integration environment, such as Microchip Libero SoC tool.
Define Custom Board and Reference Design for Microchip Workflow
Define and register a custom board and reference design for a blinking LED model in the Microchip workflow of the HDL Workflow Advisor. You use a SmartFusion2® board, but you can define and register a custom board or a custom reference design for other Microchip platforms.
Define Custom Board and Reference Design for Sobel Edge Detection Algorithm on Microchip Platform
Create a reference design for a Sobel edge detection algorithm on a Microchip platform. You use this reference design to target a Microchip PolarFire® SoC (PFSoC) video kit. You can also follow the steps in this example to define custom board and reference design for other Microchip platforms.
