Re: [oc] ALDEC Vs. ModelSIM (VHDL Simulator)

["Paul Baxter" <paul_baxter@ntlworld.com>]

I've just had an evaluation of ActiveHDL v5.1 having struggled with Quartus
2 and ModelSIM.

In terms of usability it is a dream in comparison and the simulator was ~8
times faster than quartus (~5 times ModelsimAE). Since the full ModelSIM is
far faster than the Altera Edition I can't comment, but I personally would
recommend ActiveHDL as a lower cot, more user friendly integrated
alternative.

Get a free 10day full license and try for yourself. It will open your eyes.

I love the integration with 3rd party tools. Just a click and Leonardo
synthesis was working. Another to add Quartus place/route. Everything was so
much easier than before :)
