Synthesizing a Design
This chapter describes how to synthesize the ping64 example design with global clocks
using the supported synthesis tools. For the PCI 32 interface, substitute ping32 for ping64. If
you are using a design with reference clocks, substitute pcim_top with pcim_top_r and
ping_tb with ping_tb_r.
Supported synthesis tools include
• Synplicity Synplify v7.3
• Exemplar LeonardoSpectrum v2003a
• Xilinx XST
