IP-XACT
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
IP-XACT is an XML format that defines and describes electronic components and their designs. IP-XACT was created by the SPIRIT Consortium as a standard to enable automated configuration and integration through tools.[1]
The goals of the standard are
- to ensure delivery of compatible component descriptions from multiple component vendors,
- to enable exchanging complex component libraries between electronic design automation (EDA) tools for SoC design (design environments),
- to describe configurable components using metadata, and
- to enable the provision of EDA vendor-neutral scripts for component creation and configuration (generators, configurators).
Approved as IEEE 1685-2009 on December 9, 2009, published on February 18, 2010.[2] Superseded by IEEE 1685-2014. IEEE 1685-2009 was adopted as IEC 62014-4:2015.

- Kactus2 open source IP-XACT design environment
- Scineric Workspace IP-XACT based IDE
- Xilinx's Vivado tool supports IP-XACT component by way of a Xilinx Core Instance (XCI) files. The XCI file represents an IP-XACT component XML file that records the values of project options, customization parameters, and port parameters used to create the IP. Most of the IP in the Vivado IP catalog uses the IP-XACT standard format (based on IEEE Std 1685-2009).
