  • Designing a Digital Down Converter (DDC) using dsphdl System objects

What it does

Matlab Design Dsphdl Ddc is an agent skill from matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit. Use when designing a Digital Down Converter (DDC) using dsphdl System objects. Triggers on requests involving DDC design, frequency down-conversion for FPGA/ASIC, NCO + mixer + decimation filter chains, fractional/non-integer sample rate conversion, or HDL-optimized receiver front-end signal processing.

Its SKILL.md is about 5.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `manifest.yaml`, `references/architecture-variants.md` and `references/component-properties.md`).

It sits in Frontend & Design. The repository describes itself as: The MATLAB Agentic Toolkit brings proven MATLAB capabilities to AI agents, making engineering and scientific workflows agent-ready.

When your agent uses it

  • Designing a Digital Down Converter (DDC) using dsphdl System objects
  • Requests involving DDC design
  • Frequency down-conversion for FPGA/ASIC
  • NCO + mixer + decimation filter chains

Example prompts

  • “/matlab-design-dsphdl-ddc”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Compute DDC Parameters
  2. Design CIC Compensation FIR
  3. Instantiate dsphdl System Objects
  4. Simulate the DDC
  5. Generate HDL

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 69e71df. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are matlab).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Matlab Design Dsphdl Ddc loads about 5.6k tokens when it runs, and up to ~9.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 82 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,484 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~82
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~5.6k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~9.4k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,484 words (~5,568 tokens).

“End-to-end MATLAB workflow for designing a Digital Down Converter (DDC) using dsphdl System objects — combining an NCO (local oscillator), complex mixer, and multi-stage decimation filter chain — then simulating the streaming HDL-optimized design and generating synthesizable HDL via HDL…”
