Developing the Conceptual Design
Technology Overview
ABSTRACT

The DO-254 process defines conceptual design as a "high-level design concept that may be assessed to determine the potential for the resulting design implementation to meet the requirements." In this video, DO-254 program manager Michelle Lange discusses what steps should be taken to comply with DO-254 requirements in conceptual design, and how Mentor Graphics Vista can help engineers incorporate good DO-254 practice in complex FPGA designs.
