Blue Pearl Software Introduces "No EDA Tool Purchase Plan".SANTA CLARA Santa Clara, city, Cuba Santa Clara (sän`tä klä`rä), city (1994 est. pop. 217,000), capital of Villa Clara prov., central Cuba. , Calif. -- Blue Pearl Software[TM], Inc. introduces an innovative EDA (1) (Electronic Design Automation) Using the computer to design, lay out, verify and simulate the performance of electronic circuits on a chip or printed circuit board. business model designed to emphasize affordability by offering access to productivity enhancing tools at a fraction of their purchase price. The program offers short term use of the company's tools without incurring the high cost of purchasing, integrating, and learning new tools. The products included in the offer are Indigo RTL (Register Transfer Level) A high-level hardware description language (HDL) for defining digital circuits. The circuits are described as a collection of registers, Boolean equations, control logic such as "if-then-else" statements as well as complex event sequences; Analysis, Cobalt Timing Constraint Constraint A restriction on the natural degrees of freedom of a system. If n and m are the numbers of the natural and actual degrees of freedom, the difference n - m is the number of constraints. Generation, and Azure azure /az·ure/ (azh´er) one of three metachromatic basic dyes (A, B, and C). az·ure n. Any of various dyes used in biological stains, especially for blood and nuclear staining. Timing Constraint Validation. When a company wants to check the quality of their RTL, identify coding errors, generate timing constraints CONSTRAINTS - A language for solving constraints using value inference. ["CONSTRAINTS: A Language for Expressing Almost-Hierarchical Descriptions", G.J. Sussman et al, Artif Intell 14(1):1-39 (Aug 1980)]. , or validate timing constraints, Blue Pearl Software will immediately send a highly trained applications engineer to run any of the tools and provide results within two business days, including installation and set-up of the chosen tool. The new program helps designers achieve higher quality RTL netlists, close timing faster, and lower their design risk. It can save weeks of design work while eliminating the costs and time related to the training and deployment of new tools. This allows customers to size their staffing appropriately while working on new developments to drive growth.
