Revision as of 10:23, 6 February 2011
This beat is now ready to have Fedora 25 content added by the beat writer
It is still under construction and content may change. Do not rely on the information on this page.
Circuit Design
This section includes the set of applications for schematic capture, circuit simulation and PCB layout that have had major changes with Fedora 15.
archimedes
Rebuild for F15 against GNU Archimedes release 0.9.1: no up-stream changes
http://www.gnu.org/software/archimedes/
drawtiming
Rebuild for F15 against drawtiming release 0.7.1: no up-stream changes
http://drawtiming.sourceforge.net
gtkwave
gtkwave is an analysis tool used to perform debugging on Verilog or VHDL simulation models.
With Fedora 15 gtkwave has been upgraded to 3.3.18, with improvements and new features respect to the release 3.3.10 present in Fedora 14. Among these there are: additions of new tcl functions to enhance Tcl access; added support for process and transaction filters in MinGW and support for Open New Window to MinGW; in order to aid in indexing, detection for Verilog XL-style VCD identifiers in all vcd loaders in gtkwave. Updates to manual supporting GTKWave 3.3.18. For all details and fixes, view the CHANGELOG.TXT in the doc package.
