Use RTL, ISA, Evolve and the dedicated ALcad CAD workspaces inside Digital Design Studio.
Overview
Digital Design Studio brings RTL development, ISA, Evolve and ALcad together in one application. ALcad keeps its own CAD interface and documentation. Choose a workspace for the task without installing another current design application.
Choose a product
Product | Use it for | Start here |
|---|---|---|
Digital Design Studio | RTL editing, ISA modeling, supported generation and verification, shared analysis, and Evolve | |
ALcad | Schematic, PCB, 3D assembly, and SI/PI workflows |
Use Flow Navigator to move between RTL and ISA stages. The ISA entry in the left activity rail exposes the detailed ISA function navigator. Event Trace is shared under Analysis.
Downloads and platform status
Use the shared Downloads page for Digital Design Studio, including ALcad. Supported platforms and workspaces depend on the published release. Older packages keep their original capabilities; see Release notes before updating.
Use the current installer for your platform and read its validation status. The Windows guide covers signed MSIX distribution; Linux installation covers the Debian package. Both link back to the current download channel.
Platform and developer integrations
Altifigence Cloud provides online project workspaces. Altifigence CLI is a separate command-line distribution. MCP connects an authorized client to the tools enabled for its account. Use the product-specific guide to select a supported operation and host.
Local and online work
Opening a local project does not upload it. Only deliberately selected online actions may transfer source or artifacts. Review Local workspaces and data boundaries before using a remote runner or external AI provider.
Review generated reports, verification results, and optimization candidates before accepting them into a project. A successful command does not replace project-level verification.
Compatibility
Existing command names, package filenames, API routes, and settings keys may retain legacy identifiers for compatibility. They are technical identifiers, not separate current products. In particular, altifigence-ide, alti ide, rtl_evolve, /api/evolve/*, and .alEvolve are not renamed by this guide.
