In Viewlogic's defense, I think if you simply asked them, they would have told you it does not work with Win95. At least that was the case with us. There are enough other reasons to complain about them, I don't think we need to bash them about this issue.

Hello FPGA'ers, Does anybody know when the new announced Altera Flex10K will showup in samples and production ? What will be the first member(s) of Flex10K family to be available ? Will an average Pentium PC (90Mhz, 32Mbyte DRAM) support the fitting power needed for targetting designes into the new Flex10K ? Alex Koegel HW Development Manager DSPC IsraelArticle: 2078
Does anybody knows something about Internal error 1012 that ppr returns?
Thanks for your help.

This is the third time XACT 5.1 fucks my Setup Configuration. Yes, the CMOS.
I think I'll never finish my work........
Of course, I use a PC with QEMM and I know they're not

Hello folks,
I have a problem. I wrote a .mem file to define a XBLOX:PROM and I
ran Xmake & Xsimmake. However, when I run Viewsim S/D, the output of my memory
isn't the value in the .mem file (only for the highest addresses). I've checked
the .mem file and I've "deltree" the s<design> directory to run again Xsimmake.
But the result is the same. Does anybody know what happens?
Please, help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fernando.

Article: 2083I was also pretty disappointed to find out that the Viewlogic Pro Series ProSim software doesn't work with Windows 95. I did find a workaround, though, sort of. There is also a program in the PROSER directory called "viewsim.exe" It seems to be basically the DOS version of the simulator. It run's fine in a DOS window inside of Windows 95. I tried it with a few small designs and it seemed to work fine. For now, I'm staying with WFW 3.11. I would really like to go to Windows 95, but here at JPL, they don't even want us to upgrade until Jan 31, 1996. - Robert Navarro In article <aa7cb$f3220.137@sj-rsrch.demon.co.uk>, Steve Wiseman <steve@sj.co.uk> wrote: >In article <45brb1$plq@fnnews.fnal.gov>, husby@fnal.gov says... >> >>Apparently still not the types to jump on a bandwagon too soon, View Logic >>will not be releasing a windows-95 compatible version of the pro-series till >>at least December. >> >>Unfortunately, I learned about this the hard way. > >Yes, us too.

The bash is much more that it doesn't work, than that no-one said. The bug fixes _do_ seem to take a while, though, and this one's damn close to a show-stopper.

Right. I've got a challenge for all you boffins out there. See if you can get these questions correct: (Correct answers will be posted on 15/10/95) 1. Give the IBM floating-point representations for decimal 55.4 and -53.4 2. Give the IEEE standard single-precision floating-point representations for +29 and -29 3. Compare the ranges, accuracy, and other system design considerations for the preceding two floating-point number systems. 4. Write all 4-bit 2s compliment numbers (that is, sign plus 3-bit numbers) and their decimal values. Show that negative numbers exceed positive numbers by one. Consider 0 to be either -ve or +ve. 5. How many different numbers can be stored in a set of four switches, each having three different positions (four three-position switches)? ---------------------------------------------------------------- | Ian Harrison I.R.Harrison@Bradford.ac.uk | ----------------------------------------------------------------Article: 2091

You have to solder the QFP to the top of the adaptor. Takes some flux and acute eyesight, but it can be done. Make sure you don't buy the "application specific" adaptor.

We've finally got around to creating some Web pages that describe the
Software Acceleration work. The core page for these is at:
http://www.ap.co.umist.ac.uk/~jf/Acceleration/SoftAcc.html
It is currently only missing copies of the papers we've written about the
subject, as well as some subject matter still in development.

Computer Science has little to do with the numbers of computers out

I don't know about COMPUTERS, but how bout some FPGAs?
Perhaps this isn't the best newsgroup for your questions.

There's a product out there called PLD Pilot, which contains
comprehensive databook info on every PLD and FPGA, as well as
macrocell diagrams etc, and the ability to search by various
criteria.
I'll try to find contact details...

Article: 2097My department needs to buy PC-based FPGA Design entry and Simulation software for Actel FPGA's. As it is not possible to evaluate all the major tools on the market an input from designers out in the industry using FPGA's will be greatly helpful. I would appreacite if designers could give their opinions on VIEWLOGIC/ ORCAD/INTERGRAPH based on their experience with these tools. We are a small research staff at a University and do not get to change tools often for want of money (we are lucky if that happens once every 10 years!!!). It is imperative that we make the best choice now. In view of this, opinions of experienced designers will be very valuable. Thanks in advance, SudhirArticle: 2098

There is a software program and database called PLD/FPGA-PILOT
which I just received some information about. The following is
taken directly from their advertising material:
< begin excerpt from advertisement >
What is it? The PLD/FPGA-Pilot is a powerful, yet easy to use
search program running under Windows. It is combined with a
database of programmable logics devices(FPGAs, CPLDs and PLDs)
that can be updated every 3 or 4 months. This software tool
has been used successfully in Europe for over two years. Now
YOU can use it to help find the devices for your design...
< end excerpt from advertisement >
The price is given as $199 with a 1-year Database Update
subscription for $99. For further information contact:

I hope this helps. BTW, I am in no way associated with the above
company. I just got this in the mail today and it seems to be
exactly what Hans is asking for. So please, no flames.
