IP-XACT

IP-XACT, also known as IEEE 1685, is an XML format that defines and describes individual, re-usable electronic circuit designs (individual pieces of intellectual property, or IPs) to facilitate their use in creating integrated circuits (i.e. microchips). IP-XACT was created by the SPIRIT Consortium as a standard to enable automated configuration and integration through tools and evolving into an IEEE standard. The goals of the standard are * to ensure delivery of compatible component descriptions, such as IPs, 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. Superseded by IEEE 1685-2014. IEEE 1685-2009 was adopted as IEC 62014-4:2015. In June 2023, the supplemental material for standard IEEE 1685-2022 IP-XACT was approved by Accellera.
