Silego Technology has released its new GreenPAK Designer for Mac software. This version was created to provide Mac users with a graphical schematic design tool for the GreenPAK device (a one-time programmable mixed-signal micro-FPGA).

The GreenPAK Designer for Mac software is extremely intuitive for circuit designers, due to the graphical interface and circuit design requiring no programming language or compiler, according to Aron Cooperman, product marketing manager at Silego. GreenPAK Designer works in conjunction with Silego’s GreenPAK Programmer (a USB-based programming stick) to give circuit designers the ability to create custom highly integrated circuit designs.

GreenPAK Designer for Mac is available for download free of charge at Silego’s web site (http://www.silego.com/). GreenPAK development kits are available from Silego directly for US$19.95. The kit includes the USB programmer, USB cable and 50 SLG46200V GreenPAK units, everything needed to start circuit design and programming.
