Xilinx Vivado Design Suite 2025.1

Xilinx, Inc., the leader in adaptive and intelligent computing, is pleased to announce the availability of Xilinx Vivado Design Suite 2025.1 is a software suite for the design, synthesis and analysis of HDL for its line of FPGAs and SoCs.


New Device Support
- Versal AI Edge Series Gen 2, Versal Prime Series Gen 2
- Spartan UltraScale+ Family
Unified Selective Device Installer for All Versal Devices
- Reduces the Vivado download size significantly compared to previous versions
- Enables users to select one or more devices, instead of an entire Versal product line while installing the Vivado Design Suite
Versal QoR Enhancements
- Calibrated Deskew: Option to enable calibrated skew compensation to minimize local and global skews for Versal SSIT devices only ​​
- Multi-phase NoC Support: Time-slice the QoS and bandwidth requirements to maximize the NoC performance
Flexible Boot of Processing System in Versal Devices​
- Boot the processing system first and then dynamically load the PL on the fly
- Public access for all production Versal devices​
- Default flow for Versal Prime Series Gen 2 and Versal AI Edge Series Gen 2 devices
Continuing to Enable RTL Flows​
- New AXI Switch IP: A fully customizable RTL-based IP which serves as a bridge between different AXI interface types and widths
Ease-of-Use Enhancements ​
- Two dedicated “Clocking and Reset” and “Interrupt and AXI-4 Lite” views in the IP Integrator providing more information
- New Pblock planner; a one-stop shop, with everything related to creating a pblock ​
- New addressing GUI for automatic grouping of the equivalent address spaces for Versal Prime Series Gen 2 & Versal AI Edge Series Gen 2 devices
- GUI support for report_dfx_summary, which provides direct access to data specific to DFX for enhanced debugging




Vivado Design Suite is a software suite designed by Xilinx for the design, synthesis and analysis of HDL for its line of FPGAs and SoCs. Vivado Design Suite includes many tools, like Vivado, Vitis, Vitis HLS and many others. The Vivado Design Suite offers many ways to accomplish the tasks involved in Xilinx FPGA design and verification. In addition to the traditional RTL to bitstream FPGA design flow, the Vivado Design Suite provides new system-level integration flows that focus on IP-centric design. Design analysis and verification is enabled at each stage of the flow. Design analysis features include logic simulation, I/O and clock planning, power analysis, timing analysis, design rule checking (DRC), visualization of design logic and implementation results, and programming and debugging. The entire solution is integrated within a graphical user interface (GUI) known as the Vivado Integrated Design Environment (IDE). The Vivado IDE provides an interface to assemble, implement, and validate the design and the IP. In addition, all flows can be run using the Tcl application programming interface (API). Tcl commands can be interactively entered using the Tcl prompt or saved in a Tcl script. You can use Tcl scripts to run the entire design flow, including design analysis, or to run just part of the flow
Vivado Lab Edition is a compact, and standalone product targeted for use in the lab environments. It provides for programming and logic/serial IO debug of all Vivado supported devices. Lab Edition requires no certificate or activation license key. Vivado Hardware Server enables Vivado Design tools to communicate with a remote target system.
