ISE can definitely handle that. Cannot vouch for XPS, but would assume it can do too, since it uses synthesis tools which are included in ISE package. EDK Tools Question 3. I was trying to use PS2. There’s a whole bunch of IP cores in added directories and I can copy the IP cores I need into my project directory but the reference design suggests that I should be able to use BSB to create the PS2 connections. How do I add the repository directory easily to get access to all the ip cores at the start? Answer: Take the CD that came with your lab package and extract the library zip file (e.g. lib_rev_1_1.zip) into your network home directory. Next build a new system using the Base System Builder Wizard. When asked, include a repository path. The path should be something like: H:\ensc460\lib_rev_1_1\lib It’s very important that you end with the “lib” directory in your path, or XPS won’t be able to find the attached cores or board description file. You can then choose to include the PS2’s IP
