Actel released a low-cost starter kit for its cost-competitive flash-based, reprogrammable ProASICPLUS field-programmable gate array (FPGA) devices. The ProASICPLUS Starter Kit is a complete package consisting of an evaluation board with an APA075 ProASICPLUS device, Actel Libero Gold integrated design environment, a programmer, programming cable, power supply, tutorials and support documentation. Customers are able to explore various benefits of the nonvolatile, low-power FPGAs, including in-system programmability (ISP), I/O advantages and Actel's FlashLock on-chip security system, as well as efficiently evaluate the performance and functionality of their designs.
Within the Actel Libero Gold integrated design environment, customers have access to Model Technology's ModelSim simulation and design verification software; Synplicity's Synplify synthesis software; and the Actel Designer Series place-and-route software. Designers also have the ability to generate a STAPL file that can be used for programming the kit's evaluation board using Actel's programmer.
