haha! http://www.eedesign.com/story/OEG20031022S0026Hi,
Does anyone know how much Aldec Active-HDL 6.1 costs?
I emailed Aldec, but they didn't bother to reply.

"Active-HDL pricing starts at $5,900."
Was about to give you a link to the UK distis, but then noticed you're no

I'm looking for a simulation tool that (1) works and (2) handles the
current version of Verilog (& pref. VHDL as well) and (3) doesn't have
a size limit (or crippled simulation speed) and (4) doesn't cost too
much.
There's not as much choice as I had first hoped.
I'm currently using Icarus (which fails on points 1 and 2).
I've considered various versions of Modelsim (which fail on either
point 3 or point 4).
I've considered Riviera (which fails on point 4).
Aldec seems like a logical next step. Any other suggestions?

Allan.
Yes, I am looking at commercial software because I am currently usingHave you looked at any of the open source tools? Is that what Icarus
is? I am not familiar with them, but I know they exist.

Yes, I am looking at commercial software because I am currently using
an open source tool (Icarus).
My experience is that "open source" isn't necessarily the same as
"good quality" when applied to EDA tools - both the developer and the
user communities are just too small to achieve quality comparable with
commercial EDA tools (or Linux, for that matter).
I wish that someone could prove me wrong!

Allan.

Symphony is a good example though.Oops, looking through the thread I see you want a Verilog sim.
Symphony is only VHDL.
Was that directed at me or Rick? Which questions were "stupd" ?Downlad a trial from Altec. This prevents you from ascking stupd questions.

--Hi Allan,
Have you looked at Symphony EDA? It is 10% of Aldec's cost. I use
Aldec, but Symphony looks promising to me (I started using it a week
ago). It's interface is very similar, but it does not have all the
bells and whistles of Active-HDL.
