{{ImportantMessage|text=Please note that sometimes the download of the '''Vivado 2013.3 full-package''' fails because of some download system malfunctioning, but unfortunately the problem is barely noticeable, except by performing the MD5 check of the downloaded file. In case of problems, we suggest using the '''Multi-File Download''' (available on the same web page), that splits the full package in a collection of smaller files. If you use the Multi-File Download to get the "Vivado (No SDK)" package, you must also download the "Software Development Kit - 2013.3" package.}}
