Programming Tools

We strive to provide the fastest time to market for your application with two different options for your Engineering design flow. The CoreFire Next Design Suite, Open Project Builder, and VHDL Board Support approach start your application with tested and proven interfaces to all board components. On day one you can show the board and interfaces work without any up-front engineering. This approach allows you to focus on your algorithm and not the low-level details of a complex FPGA based board. Whichever option you choose, you can rest assured knowing that your application is built on a solid foundation of our 30+ years of FPGA knowledge and experience.

  • CoreFire Next

    The CoreFire Next™ Design Suite is a dataflow-based development system that brings new levels of ease and speed to FPGA programming on Annapolis Micro Systems high-performance motherboards, I/O cards, and mezzanine cards.

    CoreFire Next users have the capability to use FPGA IP from multiple sources, including High-Level Synthesis (HLS), other HDL, etc. It can also port IP to/from other hardware platforms. It uses standard Avalon and AXI IP interfaces. CoreFire Next also provides fast portability of applications between Intel and AMD-Xilinx and to newer FPGA families.

  • VHDL

    The VHDL Board Support is a complete design suite including all board level interfaces, simulation models and examples with host code. The examples show functionality of all board level interfaces out of the box.
