Today it is not unusual for FPGA users to have to deal with more than one language in their designs. At earlier stages of the design development it may be necessary to interface HDL simulation with ...

Its use results in faster development, cleaner testbenches, and a modern software-oriented approach to validating FPGA and ASIC designs without replacing your existing simulator.

You don’t usually think of simulating Verilog code — usually for an FPGA — as a visual process. You write a test script colloquially known as a test bench and run your simulation. You might get some ...

Verification takes as much as 70% of an ASIC's development time and resources. With growing ASIC complexity, verification problems are growing exponentially. Given the high cost of ASIC mask sets, the ...

As contributors and pioneers in the digital revolution, we are often so busy creating and innovating that we are compelled to focus on the trees, never mind the forest. But as we are all aware, the ...

The more we know about the bigger picture, context, historical and projected trends, or simply how other people do the same thing we do, the more efficiently and successfully we can do our specific ...

The folks at Lattice Semiconductor and Aldec have announced a new OEM agreement that will deliver the only OEM FPGA mixed language simulator. Active-HDL Lattice Edition will be bundled with Lattice's ...
