Let's get you upgraded to TL-Verilog, shall we!
Redwood EDA is first to offer complete support for TL-Verilog (1a-1d), with SandPiper™. We also foster a community of TL-Verilog support, through active participation in TL-X.org. SandPiper, together with the free third-party tools listed below will measurably accelerate your high-performance chip design.
SandPiper™ — Painless Pipelining
Download:
On Linux
On Windows and Other Platforms
Our initial focus is on Linux customers, but SandPiper can be run on other platforms. Just ask, and we'll hook you up.
License Options:
When downloading, you can select among the following licenses.
Starter Edition
Starter Edition is designed to make you, as a logic designer, more productive within your organization (for free). No special license is required.
Full Edition
Full Edition is built for broad use across a team. When your team sees what you can do, they'll want to enable SandPiper across your team. Contact us about Full Edition pricing.
Education Edition
SandPiper is free for educational use.
Feature Overview:
SandPiper generates from your TL-Verilog:
-
signal declarations
-
flip-flops
-
clock gating logic
so you don’t have to. It also translates your TL-Verilog source code logic statements line-for-line into Verilog or SystemVerilog, preserving the original structure and line numbering of your TL-Verilog code for easy correlation.
In addition, we have implemented features that are under review for TL-X 2 that enable Transaction-Level Modeling (TLM), for dramatic abstraction benefits without any loss of RTL-level control.

An open source Emacs/XEmacs editing mode is available for download as a Git repository.
Vim
An open source Vim editing mode is available with documentation here, here, and here.
Visual Studio Code
An open source Visual Studio Code syntax-highlighting mode is available with documentation here.
Atom
An open source Atom syntax-highlighting mode is available with documentation here.
Makerchip
Makerchip is our very own free online IDE for developing in Verilog or TL-Verilog. It is the easiest way to experiment with SandPiper, and simply the best IDE for IC design.
EDA Playground
EDA Playground is an online IDE provided for free by Doulos, providing easy access to EDA tools. It is ideal for training, education, and experimentation. Try it! (The TL-Verilog editing mode used by EDA Playground is provided in an open source code editor called CodeMirror.)
AMIQ's DVT
AMIQ EDA's Design and Verification Tools (DVT) is the most powerful IDE we know of for SystemVerilog development. DVT utilizes the popular Eclipse IDE framework to provide a rich environment with automated build flows, code navigation and visualization, and simulation debug. It even highlights errors as you type! And, of course... it has support for SandPiper and TL-Verilog. AMIQ offers a free trial.
