Certify® ASIC prototyping solution is the leading product for ASIC prototyping using multiple FPGAs. Certify software combines RTL multi-chip partitioning with best-in-class FPGA synthesis. Using the Certify product makes ASIC prototyping significantly easier, shortens prototype development time, improves prototype performance, and enables faster time-to-market. Synplicity has also updated its Partners in Prototyping program to include new off-the-shelf board and design services companies. Synplicity works closely with these companies to verify interoperability between its own products and the Certify tool in order to develop a smooth flow for ASIC designers, system designers and IP developers. How to Speed ASIC Functional VerificationFunctional verification is considered by many the most time consuming task in ASIC design. Companies often use server farms using dozens...

XILINX PlanAhead 8.1 Design Analysis Tool AnnouncementFrequently Asked Questions (FAQ)1. What is PlanAhead?The PlanAhead™ Design Analysis tool is logic design and analysis software from Xilinx that is anoptional add-on to the Integrated Software Environment™ (ISE) design tool suite. The PlanAheadtool provides an environment to analyze and floorplan a design targeting any of Xilinx industryleading FPGAs. It offers a powerful enhancement to the ISE development environment, improvingand automating the designer’s ability to analyze and identify performance bottlenecks within theirdesign. With an intuitive environment that provides schematic, floorplan or device views of theirdesign, users can more easily define and refine the hierarchy of their design, allowing for betterperformance and more efficient utilization of device resources.The PlanAhead tool is employed between synthesis and...

Complex Analog/Mixed-Signal System-on-Chip Designs Questa ADMS gives designers a comprehensive environment for verifying complex analog/mixed-signal System-on-Chip designs. ADMS combines four high performance simulation engines in one efficient tool: Eldo® for general purpose analog simulations, Questa® for digital simulations, ADiT™ for fast transistor-level simulations and Eldo RF for modulated steady state simulation. Analog and mixed-signal SoC designs combine analog and digital content more tightly than ever before. They increasingly depend on integrated analog blocks such as A to D and D to A converters, phase-locked loops, and adaptive filters. This increased level of integration puts tremendous pressure on designers. Traditional design tool flows force designers to develop analog and digital subsystems in isolation, delaying the integration of these components until IC...
