FREE Verification IP
One of our company goals is supporting design community, making the design verification easy and fun process. To reach that goal we share with the community the simplified versions of our VIPs.
These Free VIPs are reduced versions of our commercial VIPs, mainly targeted for educational purposes. Each free VIP contains DUT and Test-bench in the package.
If you are a student or connected with some educational institution and need the full version of our Verification IPs for educational purposes, please contact with us and we will send you our VIP for free.
The free verification IPs provided here are in GNU open source license.
