The difference between the ModelSim SE 5.7c and PE 5.7C?

What is the difference between the ModelSim SE and PE ?

The difference is speed. PE version is cheaper and is slowed down. SE version is more expensive and is not slowed down.

Hi.

Here is the compare :

just my experience

In my experience, two version very different beside same interface.
gabby's pronounce website is exact.

actually very important point is not allow PLI on PE, so can't run a full bus-fucntion simulation that similar h/w s/w co-verification.
and acutally very very late to do simulation, sometime get angry too late --;

DO NOT support PLI on PE, really ?

changeun said, "not allow PLI on PE...."

But in http://www.model.com/products/prodcomp.asp
PE has supported
** Verilog Programming Language Interface
** i.e. PLI 1.0 (tf & acc functions), PLI 2.0 (vpi functions)

PE does NOT support
VHDL Foreign Language Interface (Modelsim FLI)

Hello, joe2moon

Yes, You are correct.
It's my mistake.

When I made progess project that crypto-module, I used both language (VerilogHDL, VHDL)
I did concurrently both language. so, I confused.
For test, I used Altera Excalibure. At time, I had used PE and SE modelsim.
There are "Full-bus function simulation" that Excalibure verification name.
Full-bus function simualtion some alike HW checking simulation with PLI, FLI. (Before I was only using PLI at Verilog-XL)
SE can run PLI and FLI, but PE can't run FLI.
sorry my wrong.
