Hi,
Sorry if i'm wrong in expressions but i'm completely newbie on fpga.
Can i simulate my fpga design on my PC? I suggest i can do it with cadence or synopsis. I don't know cadence or synopsis is exacly what. Could you please give some information?
Regards.
 

you can simulate your CPLD or FPGA on PC
with Modelsim or Aldec active hdl
i think that they are appropriate for begining
i prefer Aldec
 

Most of the major FPGA vendors tools come with a free version of Modelsim. So, you can use it for your simulations. Free version (xilinx/Altera version) is pretty slow though.
I advice you to use Modelsim PE/SE if your project is a big one.
I think you can also use Cadence NC-Desktop.
 

well, what about mentor?
 

Modelsim is from Mentor
 

nWave is also a very good tool for simulation
 

Is there any tool to simulate FPGA/CPLD in circuit just like proteus in microcontrollers
