The paper is focused on the rapid prototyping for FPGA using the high-level environment of MATLAB/Simulink. An approach using the Xilinx system Generator is reviewed on an example of the High Speed Logaritmic Arithmetic unit. An alternative approach using the combination of the real time workshop with the Handel C compiler for automatized generation of the HDL code is presented. The possibilities to extend this solution in order to support the run-time reconfigurations are outlined.
