Integrated FPGA Design Flow
Welcome to Mentor Graphics ASIC and FPGA HDL Design Creation and Synthesis solutions. With two decades of HDL-based development tool experience, Mentor Graphics delivers a range of product solutions from concept to implementation for requirements through project management and development.
FPGA Methodologies
Requirements Tracking
Track hardware implementation for requirement validation for safety critical projects in medical, transportation, aerospace and military, or any complex ASIC or FPGA design.
Design Creation
Mentor Graphics provides best in class tool supporting techniques and methodologies to accelerate the creation of thousands of lines of code to improve design productivity.
Design Reuse
Adopting new standards, tools, and methodologies will enable you to improve your design creation and reuse of legacy code, informal and formal IP.
Advanced FPGA Synthesis
Designers need a multi-vendor synthesis tool to keep pace with advances in technology. Precision RTL Plus is the industry's most comprehensive FPGA solution.
ASIC Prototyping
Ease the transition from ASIC to FPGA design by allowing the same HDL code and constraint syntax to be used.
IP-XACT
An XML Databook standard from the Spirit Consortium for a formalized approach to model IP.
SystemVerilog Design & Synthesis
Mentor Graphics enables designers to leverage the power of SystemVerilog for productive design creation, effective testbench development, and efficient synthesis.
Simulation
Delivering the highest simulation productivity possible with multi-language support and high-performance simulation engine.
