Interface speeds simulation performance
A new API-based interface provides more effective tool interoperability between Super FinSim and the Debussy debug system from Novas Software
Fintronic USA has developed an API-based interface between its Super FinSim and the Debussy debug system from Novas Software. The new interface provides more effective tool interoperability and simulation performance than the previous PLI-based mechanism. According to Dr Alec Stanculescu, CEO and President of Fintronic USA: "The custom built API-based interface accelerates performance and enables functionality previously impossible to implement with a PLI-based interface.
