How to convert Simulink model to VHDL code?

Hi,

How can I convert a Simulink model into VHDL code? Is it later possible to implement it in the FPGA? I'll be using Microsemi SmartFusion2 FPGA.

Thanks Stalin for answering the question.

Yes, you need HDL coder to generate VHDL code from Simulink model and the generated HDL code can be used for FPGA programming or ASIC prototyping and design.

• Using HDL Coder you can generate VHDL code from matlab /simulink file

As different FPGAs have different math blocks, so the code that works on one type of FPGA, might not work in another. So is it possible to define a specific FPGA in HDL Coder?
