Either ModelSim or VCS-MX. Arcording to me, VCS-MX is the best due to the system task interface it provides.

There is also free VHDL simulator (command line interface) with option to generate VCD at http://ghdl.free.fr/.

The VCD, when enabled, is for the entire design.

In my site you can see a "VHDL component to generate VCD waves to replace GHDL VCD wave dump option", together with many VHDL and VERILOG free code.

many vendors provide simulators for simulating HDL designs

modelsim by mentor graphics
ISE by Xilinx
ncsim by CADENCE

i am not aware of free simulators which works for all designs

Hi all,

Who can give more information regarding VCS-MX. (Vendor, Lat version features..)
Is it a free tool or commercial and is there any demo version on the www ?

Basically VCS MX is Costlyiest tool in the Industry Because it supports a lot of languages VHDL,Verilog,SystemVerilog,SystemC,DirectC,Perl,TCL etc.

so I think VCS is good for ure need. which supports only VHDL and Verilog few more.

its a synopsys tool there is no demo version availabe on net.If u r newbie in this domain then I will suggest modelsim . and you will get demo version from
www.mentor.com
