MAX+PLUS II Programmable Logic Development System & Software Data Sheet
HDLs can implement state machines, truth tables, conditional logic,
Boolean equations, and arithmetic operations—including addition,
subtraction, equality and magnitude comparison. The MAX+PLUS II
software also supports LPM functions entered in HDLs. Together, these
features make it easy to implement complex projects in a concise, high-
level description.
Waveform Design Entry
The MAX+PLUS II Waveform Editor (shown in
Figure
3) is used to create
and edit waveform design files, as well as input vectors for simulation and
functional testing. The Waveform Editor also functions as a logic analyzer
that allows the designer to view simulation results.

Waveform design entry is best suited for sequential and repeating
functions. The Compiler’s advanced waveform synthesis algorithms
automatically generate logic from user-defined input and output
waveforms that represent registered, combinatorial, and state machine
logic. The Compiler automatically assigns state bits and state variables for
state machines.
