PB015July9,2014 www.xilinx.com 1 Product BriefXilinxCertifiedSafetyDesignFlowSolution Xilinxs unique and certified functional safety design methodologies allow you to integrate safety with general applications in the same device. Xilinx Isolation Design Flow (IDF) and Isolation Verification Tools (IVT) provide a certified methodology to separate areas on the FPGA. Designs can be placed into these areas and physically isolated. The areas can be changed at any time without impacting other isolated locations, proven by the IVT tools (impact analysis).For more information, see
