Featured Tools from the Tool Box
The following are development tools that Vanteon engineers have found to be particularly valuable in delivering significant value to our clients on recent projects:
Active-HDL - The Active-HDL suite is a comprehensive and totally integrated environment for digital IC design and verification that employs hardware description languages and C/C++ solutions. It provides engineers and design teams with tools for efficient and vendor independent design implementation and testing. The Active-HDL suite has been designed based on customer suggestions and feedbacks to ensure highest design productivity and remarkable ease-of-use.
Altium Designer - Altium Designer is the world’s first and only unified electronic product development system that allows engineers to take a design from concept to completion within a single application. Altium Designer brings together hardware, software and programmable hardware development within a unified environment that allows all aspects of an electronic product to be designed and managed within a single system. This, combined with modern design data management capabilities allows Altium Designer to transcend traditional tool boundaries, opening up new design possibilities that allow more intelligent electronic products to be created faster than ever before.
Code Composer Studio - TI’s Code Composer Studio™ IDE offers robust, mature core functions with easy-to-use configuration and graphical visualization tools for faster system design.
Eclipse - An extensible development platform and application frameworks for building software
HyperLynx GHz - The HyperLynx suite of tools can be used in virtually any design flow to help eliminate signal integrity, crosstalk, and EMC problems early, allowing you to "get it right the first time."
Identify - Identify RTL Debugger is the first software tool that allows you to probe and debug your FPGA design directly in the source RTL. You use Identify software to verify your design in hardware as you would in simulation -- only much faster and with in-system stimulus.
ISE™ Foundation™ - ISE™ Foundation™ integrates everything you need in a complete logic design environment for all leading Xilinx FPGA and CPLD products.
JVerify™ - JVerify™ is an HDL (VHDL / Verilog) verification environment that allows highly complex designs to be tested more rigorously and more easily than what directed testbenches will allow.
Kozio - Vanteon leverages Kozio tools on our client's development projects to
accelerate board bring up, test, and diagnostics.
Magnetics Designer - Magnetics Designer produces a complete transformer or inductor design based upon electrical specifications, including a winding sheet report and a SPICE-compatible model with parasitics.
MATLAB® - MATLAB® is a high-level language and interactive environment that enables engineers to perform computationally intensive tasks faster than with traditional programming languages such as C, C++, and Fortran.
MindManager - MindManager enables companies and individuals to work smarter, think creatively and save time by revolutionizing the way they visually capture and manage information.
ModelSim - ModelSim provides a comprehensive simulation and debug environment for complex ASIC and FPGA designs.
Orcad Capture CIS - Cadence® OrCAD® Capture CIS integrates OrCAD Capture schematic design application with features of a component information system (CIS). It reduces the time spent searching existing parts for reuse, manually entering part information content, and maintaining component data.
PSPICE - PSpice is a SPICE analog circuit simulation software that runs on personal computers, hence the first letter "P" in its name. It was developed by MicroSim and used in electronic design automation. MicroSim was bought by OrCAD and now belongs to Cadence Design Systems.
Quartus® II - Quartus® II software is the most advanced design software for Altera CPLDs, FPGAs, and structured ASICs.
Rhapsody - Telelogic Rhapsody® is an industry-leading UML® 2.1 and OMG SysML-based Model Driven Development™ (MDD™)environment for embedded systems and software engineering. Based on UML 2.1, Rhapsody allows for both function-oriented and object-oriented graphical design techniques to co-exist in one environment.
Simulink® - Simulink is a platform for multidomain simulation and Model-Based Design for dynamic systems. It provides an interactive graphical environment and a customizable set of block libraries, and can be extended for specialized applications.
Subversion - A version control system that is a compelling replacement for CVS
Synplify - Synplify is a high-performance, sophisticated logic synthesis engine that utilizes proprietary Behavior Extracting Synthesis Technology® (B.E.S.T.™) to deliver fast, highly efficient FPGA and CPLD designs. The Synplify product takes Verilog and VHDL Hardware Description Languages as input and outputs an optimized netlist in most popular FPGA vendor formats.
Synplify DSP - Synplify DSP software is a true DSP synthesis tool and the only one that performs high-level DSP optimizations from a Simulink specification. These special DSP optimizations allow designers to capture the behavior needed for their DSP algorithm without worrying about the specific implementation in hardware. The Synplify DSP solution automatically produces a highly optimized, technology independent implementation of the design ready for RTL synthesis.
TimingDesigner® - TimingDesigner® is an interactive timing analysis and diagram tool that allows you to manage and monitor your timing margins throughout the design process.
TWiki - A flexible, powerful, and easy to use enterprise collaboration platform and knowledge management system
VisualDSP++® - Analog Devices VisualDSP++® is an easy-to-use integrated software development and debugging environment (IDDE). Efficiently manage projects from start to finish from within a single interface.
Xilinx Platform Studio - One unified development tool suite and IP library supports both PowerPC® hard processor core and MicroBlaze™ soft processor core designs!
