Little to no benefit from C based HLS
Christopher shows why C-based HLS delivers little practical benefit compared with a MyHDL RTL approach, using a Vivado HLS median-filter example. He walks through the sort-network median, compares C and MyHDL implementations, and argues MyHDL is as concise while providing clearer microarchitecture control. The post emphasizes that choosing the right algorithm is the hard part, and HLS won’t replace hardware understanding.
