This paper proposes a new CAD tool that automates the RTL code generation based on the IPXACT standard (develop RTL code using XML files). Many related work generates RTL design using C language. In this work, the generation is based on XML descriptions. The tool is developed using Python. The generated RTL code can be synthesized by the synthesis tool like Design Compiler. Several commercial tools like MATLAB have this capability, but the proposed tool is faster and more configurable.
