Evaluation versions of the LogiCORE IP listed below are
included in the Xilinx Embedded Development Kit (EDK) CD releases
and associated EDK Service Packs.
Starting with the EDK 6.2i release, all fee-based EDK cores as
listed below are delivered in EDK with a Full System Hardware
Evaluation license key built in.
| General
Instructions for Processor IP |
IP Evaluation license keys in EDK are pre-programmed with a 12-month
evaluation period which starts from the official release date of
your particular version of EDK. You can generate EDK systems containing
these Full System Hardware Evaluation cores throughout the 12-month
evaluation period. When programmed into an FPGA, the evaluation
cores will operate for approximately 6-8 hours when running at the
nominal clock frequency specified for the core.
To evaluate one or more of the cores above, simply:
- Make sure you have installed the latest version of EDK
- Download and install the latest EDK Service Pack from
the Xilinx
Download Center. Specify "EDK Service Pack" for
the Download Type.
- For the XPS CAN core only, you must also contact your
local Xilinx Sales Office to
request a Full System Hardware Evaluation License Key from
your local FAE. When you receive the key, install it as directed
by the instructions in the email you will receive.
- Refer to the EDK
Getting Started Guide for general instructions on how to add
the core into your EDK system and evaluate it.
After you purchase a license for the core, you will be able to
generate a "Full" electronic license key for the latest released
core version. Since the Full license key does not expire, installing
it will enable you to generate new EDK systems containing the core
version in question indefinitely. Systems containing the core generated
with a Full license will not time out when programmed into an FPGA.
