Fundamentals
What is High-Level Synthesis?
How scheduling, allocation, pipelining, bit-accurate types, and interface synthesis turn a high-level model into RTL.
Resources
High-Level Synthesis guides
Practical explanations and decision guides for teams taking algorithms from C++ or SystemC to verified RTL.
Start with the HLS introduction for the fundamentals, then use the focused guides to assess a candidate block, plan verification, or evaluate an RTL-to-HLS migration.

Fundamentals
Decision guide
HLS feasibility study
Determine whether a block is a good HLS candidate and define the evidence needed before committing to implementation.
Methodology
HLS verification
Build a layered verification flow from reference-model comparison and C++ tests through C/RTL co-simulation and RTL sign-off.
Modernisation
RTL-to-HLS migration
Evaluate and stage the migration of a legacy Verilog or VHDL block while preserving behaviour and integration contracts.
