Synthesis and Simulation
Overview
Synthesis Software:
Synopsys Synplify Pro® synthesis software is the industry standard for producing high-performance designs. Both the software supports the latest VHDL and Verilog language constructs including SystemVerilog and VHDL-2008. The software supports Microsemi FPGA architectures. Synplify Pro software uses a single, easy-to-use interface and has the ability to perform incremental synthesis and intuitive HDL code analysis.Synplify Pro ME software is integrated in Microsemi's Libero Design Suite.
Here are the list of Synthesis software supported by Microsemi:
Precision RTL is not available as part of Libero software. User need to purchase this tool license from Mentor.
Simulation
Mentor Graphics ModelSim ME Simulator is a source-level verification tool, allowing you to verify HDL code line by line. You can perform simulation at all levels: behavioral (pre-synthesis), structural (post-synthesis), and back-annotated, dynamic simulation.Coupled with the most popular HDL debugging capabilities in the industry, ModelSim is known for delivering high performance, ease of use, and outstanding product support.
ModelSim ME and Pro ME software is integrated in Microsemi's Libero Design Suite. ModelSim ME Pro introduced with Libero SoC v11.8 which provides enhanced simulation capabilities. With this new edition of the simulator, Microsemi introduces mixed-language simulation for Verilog, SystemVerilog, and VHDL.
Libero SoC v11.8 or later include ModelSim ME Pro. Customers have to select ModelSim ME Pro in Tool Profiles to access this release.
