• Unified GUI Operation – Redesigned GUI provides unified zoom/select/pan GUI operations across all Lattice Radiant tools for consistent and efficient GUI operations.
• Integrated tools sets - Ease of design navigation and debugging enabled by integration of major tools such as Netlist View to Device Constraint Editor, Floorplan View and Physical View.
• Process Toolbar – New process toolbar GUI to control and streamline user design implementation steps for execution of “Synthesis Design,” “MAP Design,” “Place & Route Design” and “Export Files,” along with effective presentations of the implementation report.
• Industry Standard Support – Support of Industry Standard IEEE1735 IP Encryption and Synopsys Design Constraint (SDC) for maximum interoperability.
• Source Editor – HDL source code editing that includes keyword highlight support for VHDL, Verilog HDL, SDC and Lattice constraint attributes.
• IP Catalog – an integrated interface to Lattice catalog of intellectual property (IP) optimized for Lattice programmable products.
• Lattice Synthesis Engine (LSE) – Lattice developed logic-synthesis tool designed specifically to produce the best possible results for ultra-low density and low density FPGAs.
• Netlist Analyzer – An integrated pre- and post- synthesis result viewing and cross probing GUI.
• Cross Probing – Comprehensive, new close-looped physical to logical design implementation cross probing.
• Message Console – New common message viewing window console with effective classification and filtering capabilities.
• Device Constraint Editor – Integrates netlist, package, device windows as well as constraint management spreadsheet to provide a common physical device constraint adding, editing and viewing.
  • Spreadsheet window: To enter and view design constraints such as pin assignments, clock resource usage, global constraints and more.
  • Package window: GUI based assignment of signals to pins.
  • Device window: To provide the ability to browse device specific resources and cross-probe to other views.
  • Netlist window: To provide browsing of design ports/pins, and nets for drag and dropping into other views for constraints settings.
• Timing Constraint Editor – An integrated GUI to allow users to enter and view design constraints such as clock, global constraints, timing constraints and more.
• Floorplan View – A tool to view design and edit placement group constraints.
• Physical View – A tool to view detailed physical routing paths for more in depth understanding of timing issues.
• Multiple Implementations – Enables multiple seeds to allow multiple versions of a design within a single project for easy design explorations.
• Multiple Strategies – Enables implementation “recipes” to be applied to any implementation within a project or shared between projects.
• Power Calculator – Enables accurate data driven power calculation and estimation based on silicon performance data, and to provide graphical power displays and reports.
• Reveal Inserter – Enables a signal-centric model that allows easy insertion of embedded logic analyzer debug hardware for real-time analysis.
• Reveal Analyzer – Provides the ability to use multi-event triggering, which can be dynamically changed at run-time and an integrated waveform for displaying captured events from the target FPGA.
