Features
• VHDL (IEEE 1076 and 1164) high-level language
compilers with the following features
— Designs are portable across multiple devices
and/or EDA environments
— Facilitates the use of industry-standard simulation
and synthesis tools for board- and system-level de-
sign
— Support for functions and libraries facilitating
modular design methodology
— Support for enumerated types, operator overload-
ing, For... Generate statements and Integers
• Several design entry methods support high-level and
low-level design descriptions
— Graphical HDL Block Diagram editor with a library of
blocks and a text-to-block conversion utility from
Aldec
— Aldec Active-HDL™ FSM graphical Finite State
Machine editor
— Behavioral VHDL (IF...THEN...ELSE; CASE...)
—Boolean
— Structural VHDL
— Designs can include multiple entry methods (but
only one HDL) in a single design.
• Language Assistant library of VHDL templates
• Flow Manager Interface to keep track of complex
projects
• UltraGen™ Synthesis and Fitting Technology
— Infers “modules” such as adders, comparators, etc.,
from behavioral descriptions and replaces them with
circuits pre-optimized for the target device
— User-selectable speed and/or area optimization on a
block-by-block basis
— Perfectly integrated synthesis and fitting
— Automatic selection of optimal flip-flop type
(D type/T type)
— Automatic pin assignment
• Ability to specify timing constraints for all of the
Delta39K and PSI devices
• Support for all Cypress Programmable Logic Devices
— Programmable Serial Interface™ (PSI™)
— Delta39K™ CPLDs
— Ultra37000™ CPLDs
—FLASH370i™ CPLDs
— MAX340™ CPLDs
— Industry standard PLDs (16V8, 20V8, 22V10)
• VHDL or Verilog timing model output for use with
third-party simulators
• Timing simulation provided by Active-HDL™ Sim
Release 4.1 from Aldec
— Graphical waveform simulator
— Graphical entry and modification of all waveforms
— Ability to compare waveforms and highlight differ-
ences before and after a design change
— Ability to probe internal nodes
— Display of inputs, outputs, and high-impedance (Z)
signals in different colors
— Automatic clock and pulse creation
— Support for buses
— Unlimited simulation time
• Architecture Explorer and Dynamic Timing Simulator
for PSI and Delta39K devices:
— Graphical representation of exactly how your design
will be implemented on your specific target device
— Zoom from the device level down to the macrocell
level
— Determine the timing for any path and view that path
on a graphical representation of the chip
• Static Timing Report for all devices
• Source-Level Behavioral Simulation and Debugger
from Aldec
• Testbench Generation
• C3ISR Programming Cable
• Delta39K\Ultra37000 prototype board with a CY37256V
160-pin TQFP device and a CY39100V 208-pin PQFP
device
• On-line documentation and help
Functional Description
Warp Enterprise™ is an integration of the Warp Profes-
sional™ CPLD Development package with additional sophis-
ticated EDA software features from Aldec. In addition to
accepting IEEE 1076/1164 VHDL text and graphical finite state
machines for design entry, Warp Enterprise VHDL provides a
graphical HDL block diagram editor with a library of graphical
HDL blocks pre-optimized for Cypress devices. Plus, it
provides a utility to convert HDL text into graphical HDL blocks.
Warp Enterprise synthesizes and optimizes the entered
design, and outputs a JEDEC or Intel® hex file for the desired
PLD or CPLD (see Figure 1). For simulation, Warp Enterprise
provides a timing simulator, a source-level behavioral
simulator, as well as VHDL and Verilog timing models for use
with third party simulators. Warp Enterprise also provides the
designer with important productivity tools such as a testbench
generation wizard and the Architecture Explorer graphical
analysis tool.
