Vivado Design Suite is a software suite produced by Xilinx for synthesis and analysis of HDL designs, superseding Xilinx ISE with additional features for system on a chip development and high-level synthesis. Vivado represents a ground-up rewrite and re-thinking of the entire design flow (compared to ISE), and has been described by reviewers as "well conceived, tightly integrated, blazing fast, scalable, maintainable, and intuitive."

Like the later versions of ISE, Vivado includes the in-built logic simulator ISIM. Vivado also introduces high-level synthesis, with a toolchain that converts C code into programmable logic. Vivado has been described as a "state-of-the-art comprehensive EDA tool with all the latest bells and whistles in terms of data model, integration, algorithms, and performance". [Courtesy Wikipedia]
