- daly 4y agoPerfect timing (pum)... I just bought an Xilinx Pynq Z2. Thanks.
- chclau 4y agoBeing a HW digital designer, timing is everything :) You are welcome!
- Dracophoenix 4y agoQuestion: As a professional hardware designer, what software/packages do you generally recommend for high-end EDA? I've played around with KiCAD/NgSPICE, Altium, and MultiSim/Utilboard, but I'm really curious as to what the "Big Boys" use and what differences there are in performance and features.
- chclau 4y agoHi, I am a professional FPGA designer. I used to be a board designer many years ago, and most of the time I used the tools from Mentor Graphics. Only when I worked for a startup I used Orcad who, compared to Mentor Graphics, was really in another (much lower) league. The differences between Mentor Graphics and Orcad (15 years ago, when I was still a board designer) were many: Processing speed, integration between schematics entry, constraint management and layout tools, etc.
- Dracophoenix 4y agoHave you worked with any tools from Synaptics or Keysight? Are they're any other tools (whether by brand or purpose) that you consider important to your work as an FPGA or board designer that are more obscure or don't get enough attention?
- chclau 4y agoNo, I haven't. And for your second question, I don't think that the tools I use are obscure or don't get enough attention.
