Synplify Premier

Accelerate Implementation of FPGA Designs and FPGA-based Prototypes

Synplify Premier® is the industry's most advanced FPGA design and debug environment. The Synplify synthesis tools provide fast runtime, performance, area optimization for cost and power reduction, multi-FPGA vendor support, incremental and team-design capabilities for faster FPGA design development. Synplify Premier includes features that automate the creation of highly reliable designs such as those used in medical, automotive, industrial automation, communications, military and aerospace applications.

Premier includes Identify Instrumentor to provide an easy-to-use method for finding functional errors in FPGA designs that are operating on the board. The solution offers simulator like visibility into the implemented FPGA hardware and view actual signal values from an operating FPGA, directly superimposed on RTL code. In this way, users can perform in-system debug at the target operating speed.

Premier is designed to accept optimized RTL, 3rd party, and internally/previously developed IP allowing broad design exploration and faster implementation.
