VHDL Parser

Java VHDL parser API for building your own VHDL analysis tools

This parser has been developed for those who want to develop his/her own tool around VHDL RTL. Only synthesizable subset of VHDL is supported and it may not work for machine/tool generated VHDL files. This parser has been developed in Java in order to make it platform independent. It reads RTL and populates its internal object model. There are APIs to extract the design information from the database, APIs to elaborate the design along with expression evaluation capabilities. This tool has been bundled as an executable JAR file along with an application which reads a RTL file(s), dumps the design units and the reverts those back. Please refer to the document for the details of the available APIs. You need Java JRE 1.8 or above in order to use this utility. Feel free to contact the support team for any assistance.

Trusted by design teams worldwide

The collection of tools and utilities fills a real void in EDA. The baya tool is exactly what we had been looking for to assemble large top-level modules in Verilog. The GUI and high-level TCL commands are intuitive, allowing designers to get started immediately.
Michael TrocinoIC Design Manager, Coherent Logix
Thanks for efficient tools which have been successfully used in our internal wireless design flow. Friendly support has been highly appreciated.
Claudine RaibautEDA Manager, Texas Instruments
Baya is a mature production quality tool with features and capabilities beyond those of tools provided by large EDA vendors. Its flexibility is a key reason we have chosen it for use in our Cloud-based platform.
David FritzCEO, Social Silicon
Kanai produced an excellent tool set, which is very useful for complex system-on-chip integration flows. We were skeptical in the beginning, but later got really impressed by the high quality and ease of use.
Boris V. KuznetsovCEO, SOCC
Thanks a lot for creating DesignPlayer and the huge Java class library behind it. Your strong support makes me confident to explore more details in future.
Rolf KemperManager, Mixed Signal Design, Renesas Electronics Europe
EDAUtils is one of the most comprehensive tools for SoC design and integration, and it is available for free. I included EDAUtils in the OpenTech Package as a featured application.

The VHDL2Verilog translator worked great, even handling the generate statements in the source VHDL. It met our needs exactly.
Jerry FrenkilVP of Engineering, NanoWatt Design
We use the Verilog Parser for developing FPGA CAD applications. The library is very stable and EDAUtils provided much helpful support to us.
Dustin PetersonUniversity of Tübingen
I like the IP-XACT tools and others that you have developed. The IP-XACT tools are great.
Amal KhailtashLead FPGA Designer, Ciena Communications
The netlist parser provides an easy to use and flexible environment for developing my own custom analysis tools. The best part has been the prompt and helpful support.
Gene Y. WuUniversity of Texas
We have been using the Verilog testbench generator in Unix. It is really useful in the coding process and easy to use. I would recommend their tools.
Lucas TeixeiraSMDH
That really helped me now. I got the job done at the right time.
