HENDERSON, NV--(Marketwire - December 01, 2008) - Aldec, Inc., a pioneer in mixed-language simulation and advanced design tools for ASIC and FPGA devices, announced today the availability of a reprogrammable, flash-based prototyping solution for Actel's largest antifuse device, the RTAX4000S. The innovative solution features dual ProASIC3 A3PE3000 FPGAs from Actel Corporation (NASDAQ: ACTL). The solution greatly simplifies the prototyping process of space-flight systems, provides designers with a solution to design across multiple aerospace projects, shortens design cycles and drastically lowers project costs.
RTAX4000S Prototyping Solution
The RTAX4000S prototyping adaptor board includes a unique dual-stacked board configuration; a ProASIC3 A3PE3000 FPGA connected to the top daughter board is attached to the lower motherboard which contains a second ProASIC3 FPGA. The bottom part of the adaptor is footprint-compatible with RTAX CQ352 devices allowing the soldering of the adaptor board to the PCB as a regular RTAX device. Connected by a set of high speed connectors the dual-stacked high performance prototyping board allows implementing design changes easily. The adaptor board can be soldered/unsoldered several times, thus can be utilized for different projects, further reducing cost and increasing the long term practicality aspect of using the Aldec prototyping solution.
