Streamline the Development Process
with Aurora FPGA/eFPGA User Tools
Aurora Software Tools
Aurora Software Tool Suite provides a comprehensive, powerful solution for developing efficient and high-performance eFPGA applications. With an intuitive device creation flow and a proven Place & Route implementation process, designers can easily create their own eFPGA devices and complete designs with seamless integration. Aurora tools simplify the entire development process, making it easier to achieve optimized eFPGA designs.
Aurora PRO: Advanced FPGA Design with Synopsys Synplify® Integration
Aurora PRO builds upon the robust features of the Aurora tool, now enhanced with Synopsys Synplify® FPGA synthesis, delivering up to 50% better resource utilization and 35% faster Fmax for eFPGA designs. This integration significantly boosts performance and design efficiency, making Aurora PRO the ideal tool for engineers seeking optimized solutions.
Optimized for QuickLogic’s eFPGA Architecture
Aurora PRO includes specialized optimizations for QuickLogic's eFPGA architecture, such as embedded carry chains, BRAM, and DSP blocks. These targeted enhancements reduce critical path delays and accelerate design convergence, resulting in superior Quality of Results (QoR) and faster time-to-market.
Streamlined User Interface and Controls
Aurora PRO’s redesigned user interface integrates Synplify® synthesis directly within the Aurora GUI, providing a seamless experience. Engineers can effortlessly manage complex area vs. timing trade-offs, accelerate experimentation, and enable faster iterations to achieve optimal design parameters with greater flexibility and precision.
