You can often find everything required for a design inside Vitis Model Composer. For such designs, clicking Export instructs Model Composer to translate the design to HDL, and write the files for processing the HDL using downstream tools. The files written include the following:
- HDL that implements the design itself.
- An HDL test bench. The test bench lets you compare results from Simulink simulations with those from a logic simulator.
- Files that allow the Model Composer HDL to be used as a Vivado IDE project.
For details concerning the files that Model Composer writes, see the topic Compilation Results.
