FPGA Design
Hardware Programmed in Software
Products have to be designed for flexibility to cover different requirements with preferably one hardware base concept. FPGAs which are designed in such a base concept provide the required flexibility. Hitex has focused on the design-in of Altera FPGAs and is very much experienced in the design flow (simulation, synthesis and place&route) using professional tools as Mentor Graphic Leonardo and ModelSim, Silvaco SimuCad, Altera Quartus. Of course also FPGAs from other vendors can be integrated. Hitex implements your FPGA based on pure source code (Verilog, VHDL) using predefined modules like standard-LPMs or even complex IP modules like DDR SDRAM controller.
In close cooperation with our customer Hitex creates the specification with:
- Definition of the required functionality
- Definition of use- and test-cases
- Consulting regarding FPGA type and vendor
With our own designs we use mainly FPGAs from Altera, but we also offer support and designs from other vendors on demand.
