Boards & Kits
XUP supports an expanded range of hardware development systems to complement the classroom theoretical concepts with hands-on learning using Xilinx technology in the laboratory. These cost-effective boards, along with ISE WebPACK™ software, allow students to carry out their laboratory assignments at home.
Software
Students can download a free edition of ISE Foundation™ software (ISE WebPACK software) which allows fully functional implementation and simulation capabilities but is limited to a subset of families and devices. The complete ISE Design Suite: System Edition is made available to the institution for lab use.
