Virtual Chips (formerly RAVIcad) PCI Core info requested.

[danj@austx.tandem.com (Dan Joyce)]

I have been given the task of verifying the PCI cores
that were bought from Virtual Chips (formerly RAVIcad)
and integrated into an ASIC.

We are also using their stubs to test the ASIC.


Has anyone used these cores - especially these versions?
Did they find any bugs in them?
Is there good reason to go to newer versions of these Cores
and/or Test Stubs?


I know this is a question that probably comes up every few months,
but I have done my best to search the archives and haven't been able
to find anything useful.
