Xilinx releases ISE Design Suite 11.1

8 July 2009 Design Automation

Xilinx is now shipping ISE Design Suite 11.1, an FPGA design solution with fully interoperable domain-specific design flows and user-specific configurations for logic, digital signal processing (DSP), embedded processing and system-level design.

The design suite is available in a Logic Edition, DSP Edition, Embedded Edition and System Edition. Each edition provides a complete FPGA design flow tailored for the user profile and domain-specific methodology and design environment requirements, enabling designers to focus their efforts on creating value-added, competitively differentiated product applications.

ISE Design Suite 11.1 incorporates new features and ease-of-use enhancements to the base-level FPGA and domain-specific tools, technologies, and intellectual property (IP) components delivered with Xilinx targeted design platforms. Each edition provides a front-to-back design environment built on Xilinx technologies for design entry, synthesis, implementation and verification, with integration to third-party synthesis and simulation solutions. In this way, designers can select the configuration that is best suited to their methodology and Xilinx targeted design platform.

Xilinx has also improved inter-tool communication throughout the entire design process, created enhanced interoperability between all design configurations, and adopted EDA industry-standard FLEXnet licensing solutions with the ISE Design Suite 11.1 release.
