Introducing Vivado ML
ML-Based Design Optimization
Accelerate Design Closure
- The new Vivado® ML Edition delivers the breakthrough quality of results (QoR) improvements of up to 50% (average 10%) on complex designs, compared to the current Vivado HLx Edition.
- New features and algorithms like ML-based logic optimization, congestion estimation, delay estimation, and intelligent design runs, help automate strategies to reduce timing closure iterations.
Collaborative Design Environment
Increase Productivity
- Improved collaborative design with Vivado IP Integrator enabling modular design using the new “block design container” features.
- Promotes a team-based design methodology and allows for a divide-and-conquer strategy to handle large designs with multisite collaboration.
New Advanced DFX Features
Compile Time Reduction
- Xilinx introduces the concept of an Abstract Shell, allowing a user to define multiple modules within the system to be compiled incrementally and in parallel.
- This feature enables an average compile time reduction of 5x and up to 17x compared to traditional full-system compilation.
- Abstract Shell helps to protect customer’s IP by hiding the design details outside of the modules
Features
Vivado IP Integrator provides a graphical and Tcl-based, correct-by-construction design development flow. Working at the interface level, design teams can rapidly assemble complex systems that leverage IP created with Vitis™ HLS, Vitis Model Composer, Xilinx IP, Alliance Member IP as well as your own IP. By leveraging the combination of newly improved Vivado IPI and HLS, customers are saving up to 15X in development costs versus an RTL approach.
Meeting the verification challenges of today’s complex devices requires multitudes of tools and technologies at various levels of design. Vivado® Suite delivers these tools and technologies in a cohesive environment for accelerated verification of block- and chip-level designs.
The Vivado ML design suite with advanced machine learning algorithms delivers the best implementation tools with significant advantages in runtime and performance. With best-in-class compilation tools for synthesis, place, route, and physical optimization, and Xilinx-compiled methodology recommendations, designers can accelerate the implementation phase of their design cycle.

Testimonials
Abstract Shell
“DFX and its features have enabled us to optimize our application performance without service disruptions. Using Abstract Shell we were able to reduce compile time through Vivado by two-thirds on average.”
Intelligent Design Runs
"Intelligent Design Runs is a game-changer by offering a push-button method for aggressively improving timing results. IDR generates QoR suggestions that bring maximum impact, resulting in expert quality results and a reduction in user analysis, especially for tough to close designs."
Abstract Shell
“Using DFX and Abstract Shell has enabled us to keep our IP protected and at the same time allows our customers to create their own dynamic IP. DFX is especially valuable for mission-critical operations by permitting function swapping while the device remains operational.”
Block Design Container
"Block Design Container allowed us to reuse portions of our IPI design much more efficiently than previous versions of Vivado. This lead to faster design times and less chance for manual design entry mistakes”
