Scope

IEC 62014-4:2025 describes an eXtensible Markup Language (XML) schema for meta-data documenting intellectual property (IP) used in the development, implementation, and verification of electronic systems. This schema provides both a standard method to document IP that is compatible with automated integration techniques and a standard method (generators) for linking tools into a system development framework, enabling a more flexible, optimized development environment. Tools compliant with this standard will be able to interpret, configure, integrate, and manipulate IP blocks that comply with the IP meta-data description. The standard is independent of any specific design processes. It does not cover behavioral characteristics of the IP that are not relevant to integration. This standard enables the creation and exchange of IP in a highly automated design environment.
This standard is published as a double logo IEC-IEEE standard.
