Part one of this two-part series on clock rate pipelining discusses:

• Why clock rate pipelining is needed
• Why pipeline stages need to be inserted into designs that target an FPGA
• How sample rates in Simulink^® map to clock rates on an FPGA
• How to use oversampling in HDL Coder™ to scale up Simulink data rates to faster FPGA clock rates
• How clock rate pipelining works

Part two of this series demonstrates how to combine clock rate pipelining with other HDL Coder optimizations to trade off speed versus resource usage.
