Whats New in Xpedition VX.2.6 – FPGA/PCB Co-Design

In the previous What’s New in Xpedition VX.2.6  blog post I presented the new Schematic Capture functionality that is available in Xpedition VX.2.6.  In this blog I’ll be presenting some of the key FPGA/PCB Co-Design highlights.

Floorplan improvements – The FPGA I/O optimization floorplanner now locks and visually identifies components that are already locked in layout. Netline unravelling has also been improved for several use cases, including differential pairs.

Symbol wizard – The symbol wizard automatically creates fractured symbols leveraging a large library of availalble FPGA devices and corporate documentation standards. This process dramatically reduces the time to create accurate symbols.

If you’d like a preview of all the What’s New in Xpedition VX.2.6 videos, please feel free to check out the What’s New in Xpedition® VX.2.6 page. You can also take a quick 7 minute tour of Xpedition® Enterprise to get a great overview of all the functionality that Xpedition has to offer. Download the latest update from Support Center.
