Xilinx Vivado 2015.2 license

[satra0293]

I am using USRP x310 type device which requires full Vivado design license.

I have Xilinx 2015.2 version install

Where I can I get the full design license for Vivado 2015.2? I am a bit confused regarding which license I should buy since I cannot get anything specific to Vivado edition 2015.2.

I went to the site

http://www.xilinx.com/products/design-tools/vivado.html

 The link above is taking me to buy licenses for Vivado Design Suite HLx Editions and it shows licenses for HL Design and HL System Edition. Are these suitable as full design license for Xilinx 2015.2? If not, can I please get a link to the specific license that I require?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the prompt reply. I have visited all these links prior to posting here. But I still cannot understand whether the license is suitable for Xilinx Vivado 2015.2. There is no mention of the edition number anywhere and all I can see is license for Vivado HL Design or HL System. Please help me out in getting the specific full design license for 2015.2

Thanks.

I would like you to recommend to use latest version which is vivado 2016.2 .

Hi @satra0293,

Basically each license has version limit. Please go through http://www.xilinx.com/support/answers/33770.html

If you are purchasing the license now then it will support 2016.2 and the previous versions of Vivado with a version limit of 1 year.

You can get license in www.xilinx.com/getlicense or you can contact FAE http://www.xilinx.com/about/contact/authorized-distributors.html

So basically, even if I buy Xilinx Vivado HL design license, it is going to support my Xilinx 2015.2 older edition?

Thanks

Hello,

One last query. Can you check this link for me just to make sure if the licenses at the end of the page are suitable as I am very new to Xilinx based development?

Thanks
