What are the differences between WaveFormer Pro and Timing Diagrammer Pro?
WaveFormer Pro contains many features not available in Timing Diagrammer Pro. WaveFormer Pro has several Advanced WaveForm Generation features such as: the ability to create and continuously simulate waveforms with Boolean equations; the ability to import waveforms from external sources including VCD files, VHDL simulator output, and data acquired from HP logic analyzers; and the ability to import raw test vectors edited in spreadsheet software (spreadsheet-based test vector generation). WaveFormer Pro contains an IEEE 1364 compliant Verilog simulation engine that supports all major constructs of the language including advanced features such as pin-to-pin timing and PLI interface routines. All the waveform translation features are also only available in WaveFormer Pro. This includes all the export formats mentioned earlier: Verilog, VHDL, SPICE, ABEL, etc. The bottom line is that if you work with simulators, WaveFormer Pro is the tool for you. Back to FAQ.
