The Synopsys FPGA design solution comprises high-quality, high-performance, and easy-to-use FPGA implementation and debug tools. Designers using the Synopsys FPGA design tools gain fast time-to-results for complex FPGAs, area optimization for cost and power reduction, leading HDL language support, and incremental and team design capabilities for faster FPGA design development. The Synopsys FPGA design tools provide additional value by offering DesignWare® IP integration, links to high-performance functional verification with VCS®, integration with Synphony Model Compiler, and an ASIC compatible synthesis flow for FPGA-based prototyping.
Synplify Pro® Logic Synthesis for FPGA Implementation*
The Synplify Pro FPGA synthesis software is the industry standard for producing high-performance, cost-effective FPGA designs. Its unique Behavior Extracting Synthesis Technology® (BEST™) performs optimization first, at a high level, before synthesizing the RTL code into specific FPGA logic. This approach allows for superior optimization across the FPGA, provides fast runtimes and support for very large designs. Synplify Pro software supports the latest VHDL and Verilog language constructs including SystemVerilog and VHDL 2008. It supports implementation in FPGA devices from Actel using a single easy-to-use interface and has the ability to perform incremental synthesis and intuitive HDL code analysis.

Identify® RTL Debugger - Simulator-live Visibility into Hardware Operation*
The Identify RTL debugger allows users to instrument their RTL and then, directly in their RTL code, debug the implemented FPGA on live, running hardware. The software verifies a design in hardware, similar to simulation – only much faster and with in-system stimuli. The Identify RTL debugger allows users to designate sample triggers, navigate their design graphically, and mark signals in the RTL that are to serve as probes. After synthesis, the results are viewed and annotated onto the RTL source code or they can be viewed in the Identify RTL debugger's, or any third party, waveform viewer. This ensures RTL-to-implementation equivalence and correct operation of the FPGA design. Design iterations can be rapidly accomplished using incremental place and route. Learn more about Identify AE.
Synphony HLS - High Level Synthesis from Language and Model-based Design*
Synphony is a language and model-based high level synthesis (HLS) technology that provides an efficient path from algorithm concept to silicon. Designers can construct high level algorithm models from C/C++ languages or high level IP model libraries, and then use the Synphony HLS engine to synthesize optimized RTL implementations for ASIC and FPGA, architectural exploration and rapid prototyping. Learn more about Synphony HLS AE.
