How to open BBD file?
The most common problem when using Xilinx Black Box Definition Format is that a specific BBD is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that BBD files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BBD file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install Xilinx CORE Generator System
In this case, you should first verify that the Xilinx CORE Generator System application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Xilinx CORE Generator System into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support BBD files.
Programs to open BBD file
Remember to download programs supporting BBD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Xilinx CORE Generator System with BBD files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the BBD file still does not use the Xilinx CORE Generator System program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Xilinx CORE Generator System application as the default for handling the BBD file.
Step 3. Update Xilinx CORE Generator System to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Xilinx CORE Generator System program, it is possible that Xilinx Black Box Definition Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Xilinx, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BBD file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BBD file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file BBD or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected BBD files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the BBD files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair BBD file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted BBD files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the BBD file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file BBD to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BBD file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
