SynaptiCAD Inc

Tektronix has added support for SynaptiCAD's products to its line of logic analyzers and pattern generators. Tektronix Logic Analyzer series can capture waveform data in a form that can be read by WaveFormer, VeriLogger, and TestBencher. This waveform data can then be converted into stimulus vectors for VHDL, Verilog, SPICE, ABEL, and Pattern Generators (including the new Tektronix TLA7PG2). This functionality gives engineers the ability to leverage the work done during the design phase of the product, simplifying the development of a test environment that provides good test coverage and excellent debug capability.

SynaptiCAD's products WaveFormer Pro, VeriLogger Pro, and TestBencher Pro all support Tektronix's test equipment. All of these tools have a waveform display and timing diagram editor that can export data to simulator and pattern generator formats. They can also import data from logic analyzers and simulators. Over 43 file formats are supported. WaveFormer Pro is a timing diagram editor and interactive simulator that is used by engineers early in the design cycle before a complete model or schematic can be conceived. VeriLogger Pro is a Verilog simulator with a graphical stimulus generation. TestBencher Pro is system level test bench generator that creates bus-functional models directly from timing diagrams.

SynaptiCAD offers a complete line of HDL and timing visualization tools:

TestBencher Pro: a VHDL/Verilog test bench generator that creates bus-functional HDL models from timing diagrams.

VeriLogger Pro: Verilog simulator with waveform viewer, debugging environment, and hierarchical browser.

DataSheet Pro: documentation environment for managing large projects, features OLE, style-sheets, views, vector and web image creation, and supports all major publishing programs

WaveFormer Pro: an interactive HDL simulator. Design information changes cause automatic updates to simulation results providing instant feedback on the impact to system functionality and performance.

Timing Diagrammer Pro: the industry's most advanced timing diagram editor with support for TDML, FrameMaker MIF files, MS Word metafiles, EPS, & more.
