Mentor Graphics' solutions accelerate the process of creating, debugging and verifying VHDL and Verilog based designs from a technology-independent system level down to a technology-specific implementation. It also allows true architectural exploration at the system level of the design. Solutions span PLD, FPGA, ASIC and IC design; design for test; analog and mixed-signal; board (including high-speed) and MCM design.Mentor Graphics' approach of combining best-in-class point tools into well integrated, complete, design flows provides extremely powerful design environments for designers facing the challenges of complex functionality, implemented on large capacity silicon.
