World-Class Synthesis with
LeonardoSpectrum Altera Edition
PLD technology advancements have enabled
designers to reach higher density and perfor-
mance levels. As designers make the transition
to sophisticated HDL-based design method-
ologies, they benefit from the power, efficiency
and ease-of-use afforded by leading-edge
synthesis tools. Altera provides the world-
class LeonardoSpectrum synthesis tool for
both PC and UNIX-based systems with all
Altera development tool subscriptions.
The LeonardoSpectrum software from
Exemplar Logic (a Mentor Graphics company)
is now fully integrated into Altera’s devel-
opment environment. Altera’s software
strategy brings leading-edge tools to the
high-end designer and supports the latest
design techniques.
LeonardoSpectrum from Exemplar Logic
The LeonardoSpectrum synthesis tool
combines push-button ease-of-use with
powerful control and optimization features
associated with workstation-based ASIC
tools. This software package provides a
variety of features including a design
hierarchy browser, critical path optimization,
Tcl scripting, and global constraints.
