Easy-to-Use Design Software for MAX 3000A Designs

The Quartus^® II Web Edition and MAX+PLUS^® II BASELINE design software provide no-cost software support for MAX^® 3000A devices. Both tools offer an easy-to-use and comprehensive design environment for system-on-a-programmable-chip (SOPC) solutions with synthesis, place-and-route, design verification and simulation, and device programming capabilities. The two software platforms also offer seamless integration with third-party synthesis and simulation tools.

MAX 3000A industrial-grade devices and 256-pin FineLine BGA^® package on 128- and 256-macrocell densities will be supported by software updates for Quartus II Web Edition, MAX+PLUS II BASELINE, Quartus II, and MAX+PLUS II software.

Customers should use the Quartus II software for new projects and the MAX+PLUS II software for existing projects.

Table 1 lists the features supported by the Quartus II and MAX+PLUS II software.
