This is the manual for SynaptiCAD’s timing diagram editing and analysis features. It is the main manual for WaveFormer Pro, Timing Diagrammer Pro, and DataSheet Pro. It is also a reference manual for the TestBencher Pro, VeriLogger, BugHunter, GigaWave and Transaction Tracker because these products also include some of the drawing and analysis features of the timing diagram editor.
