7. Xilinx ConfidentialPresentation Name 7 XUP Programs and Products XUP Donation Policy “If a new or expanded course with lab or a research project is being added and funding is not adequate to purchase the required products at the University Program discounts, Xilinx encourages any university or college to submit a donation request.” To Purchase or To Request a Donation - What's Practical for you? If you have sufficient budget to purchase Xilinx software, development boards, and/or chips, then we encourage you to do so. We offer significant discounts for Xilinx software and Xilinx development boards. However, we recognize that very often, schools simply do not have the funding even for the discounted products. In some cases, a school might have some funding, but not enough to obtain everything that is needed for the lab. We encourage you to make the choice that you feel is right for your situation. Most importantly, if money is any barrier to your immediate use of Xilinx products, you should request a donation for what you need.
