Anyone care to comment:
SUNNYVALE, CALIF. (Jan. 29) BUSINESS WIRE -Jan. 29, 1996--Actel Corporation today released the "feel-good demo of the year," the Designer Series 3.0 Multimedia Demo. Now showing on PCs worldwide, the disk helps designers evaluate Actel's industry-leading field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) and Designer Series 3.0 development system.
The highly interactive disk features more than 100 exciting multimedia scenes explaining the benefits of FPGAs, the details of Actel's architecture and devices, and the use of design options provided by Actel's Designer Series development tools. An emulation of Actel's design tools enables users to interactively manipulate a typical design to gain hands-on FPGA design experience. In addition, the disk includes several case histories spotlighting the use of Actel's products to achieve early design success for fast time-to-market.
"I give it two thumbs up," said Steve Gurklys, channel marketing manager, Actel. "The Designer Series Multimedia Demo is a fun, interactive way for logic designers to gain valuable knowledge about FPGAs in general and Actel's development tools and devices in particular. The Multimedia Demo is a fast-paced, action-packed blockbuster hit!"
Actel's Designer Series Multimedia Demo is now playing on any 386 or higher PC running Windows with a CD-ROM drive, and 256-color graphics card. A sound card and speakers are recommended but not required.
Designer Series Multimedia Demo is a recommended experience for all audiences, but especially designers who are unfamiliar with FPGAs or with Actel's design tools. Programmable Logic Device (PLD) designers who are considering the move to a higher level of design complexity will find Designer Series Multimedia Demo a valuable addition to their CD library.
Designer Series Multimedia Demo is available now through Actel's direct sales force as well as its representative and distributor network, or by calling Actel direct at 1-800-228-3532. Alternatively, designers can order the Demo Disk from Actel's critically acclaime |
