Run and Verify Generated IP Core

Prototype, simulate, and verify the generated IP core on your target FPGA device

Run and verify the generated bitstream from your IP core design on your target hardware. The input is a generated bitstream for the FPGA portion of your device. The output is a simulated and verified design running on your target FPGA. For more details on the workflow, see Targeting FPGA & SoC Hardware Overview.
