R Foundation ISE IP. ISE even includes technology called IP Builder, which allows you to capture your own IP and reuse it in other designs. ISE’s Architecture Wizards allow easy access to device features like the Digital Clock Manager and Multi-Gigabit I/O technology. ISE also includes a tool called PACE (Pinout Area Constraint Editor) which includes a front-end pin assignment editor, a design hierarchy browser, and an area constraint editor. By using PACE, designers are able to observe and
