WaveFormer Pro

WaveFormer Pro is a revolutionary new rapid-prototyping EDA tool that helps you design faster and with fewer mistakes. WaveFormer Pro enables you to automatically determine critical paths, verify timing margins, adjust for reconvergent fanout effects, and perform "what if" analysis to determine optimum clock speed. WaveFormer Pro also lets you specify and analyze system timing and perform Boolean level simulation without the need for schematics or simulation models. When your timing diagram is complete, you can then generate digital stimuli for your favorite Verilog, VHDL, SPICE or gate-level simulator. WaveFormer Pro has the ability to import and annotate simulation and logic analyzer data, for publication quality design documentation.


"Waveformer Pro has been invaluable to me for working thru design ideas as well as documenting the design implementation. One of my recent designs, a Crossbar Switch Arbiter implemented in an Altera CPLD, was a heavily pipelined architecture using time division multiplexing. Waveformer Pro was used to initially brainstorm device operation and to document how each pipe element worked and would feed the next element in the pipe. Waveformer Pro has also been used to document system timing considerations, which have formed the backbone of a 64Gbit router design. All timing considerations have been included in a waveform diagram and timing spreadsheet indicating how all router line cards must implement the back-end design. This diagram will become the basis of our system design documentation. Waveformer Pro has been easy to use and exactly the tool that today's design engineer needs to include as part of one's design methodology."
