The Waveform Editor allows the designer to copy, cut, paste, repeat, and
stretch waveforms; to create design files with internal nodes, flipflops,
state machines, and memory words; to combine waveforms into groups
that display binary, octal, decimal, or hexadecimal values; to compare two
sets of simulation results by superimposing one set of waveforms on
another; and to annotate files with comments.
Floorplan Editing
The MAX+PLUS II Floorplan Editor (shown in
process of assigning logic to device pins and logic cells. A graphical image
of each device used in a project allows easy logic placement. Both high-
level and detailed device views are available. The designer can assign pins
and logic cells before compiling a design, and can view and modify the
results after compilation.
Floorplan Editor features allow the designer to view all assigned and
unassigned logic in a device. The Floorplan Editor provides a color-coded
view of all logic resources in the device, as well as user assignments, fan-in
and fan-out information, and architecture-specific features. Any node or
pin can be dragged to a new location. Logic can be assigned to specific
pins and logic cells, or to more general regions within a device.
Assignments can also be made with menu commands in any
MAX+PLUS II application. All assignments are stored in the text-based
Assignment & Configuration File (.acf), which can also be edited in the
MAX+PLUS II Text Editor.
