SynaptiCAD has released a 64bit Linux version of Verilogger Extreme, a Verilog simulation and debug environment.

The 64bit simulator runs 30 per cent faster than the 32bit version and can simulate much larger designs.

This is because 64bit Linux applications can use a system's full memory, while 32bit applications are limited to 3GB of memory.

As with the 32bit version, SynaptiCAD is continuing to offer free six-month licenses for the 64bit simulator, so it is available to use free for commercial development.

The 32bit and 64bit simulators are bundled together in a single package and can be downloaded from the SynaptiCAD website.

Free licenses will be available for Linux and Windows versions of the simulator.

SynaptiCAD's simulator is being distributed without any code that slows down the simulator when run on larger designs, making it run over 10 times faster than the competition on larger simulation runs.

The Verilogger Extreme simulators come with a graphical debugging environment - Bughunter Pro - that will automatically launch Verilogger Extreme in 32-bit or 64-bit, depending on the type of operating system that the user is running.

Bughunter supports all major HDL simulators and has the ability to launch the simulator, provide single-step debugging, unit-level test-bench generation, streaming of waveform data, project management and a hierarchy tree.

The unit-level test bench generation lets the user draw stimulus waveforms and then generates the stimulus model and wrapper code and launches the code.

The debugger also supports VCD waveform files.

Verilogger Extreme is available on Linux, Solaris and MS Windows.
