Mentor Graphics Precision 2019.1

Mentor Graphics Precision 2019.1 | 1.2 Gb
Mentor, a Siemens business, is pleased to announce the availability of Precision 2019.1. This solution offers high quality of results, industry-unique features, and integration across Mentor Graphics’ FPGA Flow– the industry’s most comprehensive FPGA vendor independent solution.

Precision Synthesis is a synthesis platform that maximizes the performance of both existing programmable logic devices (CPLDs and FPGAs) and next-generation, multi-million gate field programmable system-on-chip (FPSoC) devices. The Precision Synthesis tool provides design capture in the form of VHDL, Verilog and SystemVerilog entry, advanced register-transfer-level logic synthesis, constraint-based optimization, state-of-the-art timing analysis, schematic viewing, and encapsulated place-and-route.

FPGA Synthesis Product Suite:

– Precision RTL Plus is Mentor Graphics’ flagship FPGA synthesis solution offering breakthrough advantages for commercial applications and for mil-aero and safety-critical systems. Precision RTL Plus offers an improved way of designing FPGAs and increasing designer productivity. Through its advanced synthesis technologies and integration within Mentor’s FPGA flow, it provides several unique features that enable every designer to reach timing closure faster, to minimize the impact of design changes, and to address application-specific requirements.
– Precision RTL is Mentor Graphics’ entry-level FPGA synthesis solution offering excellent quality of results and part of Mentor Graphics’ comprehensive FPGA vendor independent solution. With a rich feature set that includes advanced optimizations, award-winning analysis, and industry-leading language support, Precision RTL enables vendor-independent design, accelerates time to market, eliminates design defects, and delivers superior quality of results.
– Precision Hi-Rel, provides synthesis-based radiation effects mitigation for safety-critical and high reliability applications. Alternative methods to mitigate radiation effects, such as manually coding safeguards into the design, can be either too difficult, time consuming, or error-prone. With Precision Hi-Rel, designers can protect against single-event effects (SEEs) and benefit from automation, extensive user-control, and multi-vendor support.

This tutorial video shows students how to compile a POF & SOF file which is used to program a logic design to a target FPGA device. These files are generated using the Precision Synthesis software which is part of the Mentor Graphics software package.
