That is amazing. What was the design process like in terms of tooling? Schematic capture or was one of the proto HDLs in use?

- JezSan 5y agoI don't remember which tools the Super FX chip was designed with but maybe some other ex-Argonauts can chime in on that. I know it was pretty basic gate level stuff and wasn't designed with a high level language (Ben Cheese was an old skool chip designer)... we started using VHDL later on, when we designed the ARC etc.
