Actel's Flagship FPGA Development Software Libero Integrated Design
Environment (IDE) is Actel's comprehensive software toolset for designing
with all Actel FPGAs. From schematic and/or HDL design, synthesis and
simulation, through floorplanning, place-and-route, timing constraints and
analysis, power analysis, and program file generation, Libero IDE manages
the entire design flow quickly and efficiently.

Libero IDE provides full power optimization and analysis tools for Actel's
low-power flash FPGA families, including IGLOO and ProASIC3L, the latest
addition to the ProASIC3 family. Product Features and Types Libero IDE
offers the latest and best-in-class FPGA development tools from leading
EDA vendors such as Mentor Graphics, SynaptiCAD, and Synplicity. These tools,
combined with Actel developed tools allow you to quickly and easily manage
your Actel FPGA designs. An intuitive user interface and powerful design
manager guides you through the process while organizing design files and
seamlessly managing exchanges between the various tools.
