Beware the IP mismatch in FPGA debugRocketBlog - Dave Orecchio, President and CEO, GateRocketJan. 26, 2010 |
Incorporating 3rd party IP in a complex ASIC design is a fairly standard practice these days. There's a lot of great functionality available, it saves time compared to designing from scratch, and by and large the IP is of good quality if you get it from a reputable supplier.
Should work the same for FPGAs right? Sounds simple enough - plug in the IP you need and verify it with the context of your entire design. You've got enough simulation horsepower and you can synthesize right to your FPGA target.
