Synopsys\’ Leda® is a programmable design and coding guideline checker that delivers full chip mixed-language (Verilog and VHDL) and mixed representation (RTL & gate) capabilities to speed development of complex system-on-chip (SoC) designs. Leda’s pre-packaged rules greatly enhance a designer\’s ability to check HDL code for synthesizability, simulatability, testability, reusability, and RTL/gate signoff. Leda detects clock synchronization-related bugs, isolates hard-to-time circuits, verifies layout considerations and improves DFT for higher ATPG coverage. Leda comes prepackaged with rules to improve performance of Synopsys tools, such as VCS MX, DC and Formality. Key Benefits * Finds complex bugs, such as those associated with multiple clock domains using static analysis * Verifies consistency of design and SDC constraints for DC, PrimeTime and Astro *...

Mentor Graphics日前推出I/O Designer设计工具，据称可以同时进行FPGA和板卡设计。通过I/O Designer，设计人员可以在印刷电路板设计图上分配FPGA针脚信号，当然这需要在FPGA供应商的规则限制下完成。   图形化针脚信号分配可能听起来象一项简单的任务，但其影响非常深远。Mentor表示，在实际产品研究中，使用I/O Designer后优化了电脑主板设计，使路由路线长度减少了超过15%，这将减少设计时间和制造费用。   Mentor公司系统设计部产品开发主管John Isaac表示，“在过去，FPGA设计人员独立完成FPGA设计，然后把设计发给pcb设计师，后者在FPGA针脚信号的选择方面没有主动权。当你对pcb布线时，很有可能要使用更多层和超长的连接线。”   板卡设计师通常没有机会了解FPGA设计规则，获得FPGA各针脚用处的信息。Isaac说，如果一名电脑主板设计师擅自交换了FPGA针脚，结果将会是灾难性的。   但是，I/O Designer自动设计工具可以让主板设计师根据FPGA供应商的约束和规则自主分配针脚。Isaac表示，“pcb设计师可以根据主板情况优化针脚设计，只需要这些设计不超过FPGA器件库的要求。当完成设计后，这些信息会自动发回给FPGA设计系统。”而完成所有这一切，只需要在种图形环境下“拖拉”图标实现。   除图形化分配针脚之外，I/O Designer还可以用FPGA描述自动产生示意图。 product:Mentor Graphics I/O Designer 7.4 Lanaguage:English Platform:/win2000/winxp Size:109MB

SIMPLIS is a computer software package specifically designed for the simulation and analysis of switching power supplies. In a typical switching power system, the transistors and the diodes function as switches, allowing the system to be characterized by a cyclical sequence of linear circuit topologies. By taking advantage of the repetitive piecewise-linear structure of such systems, SIMPLIS is able to perform the simulation in an efficient and accurate manner. In order to avoid potential problems caused by simple syntax errors, SIMPLIS automatically checks the syntax of the input file provided by the user. If syntax errors are detected in the input file, error messages are recorded in a file for the user to inspect and correct the errors. This feature...
