XCO: This file contains core options and parameters.
EDN/NGC: This is the implementation netlist for the IP cores which output netlists. It is passed on to the Translate (NGDBuild) process.
SYM: This schematic symbol is automatically generated for instantiating the IP in a schematic.
VHO or VEO template files: These files are automatically generated for instantiating the IP in an HDL file.
VHD or V simulation wrapper files: These files are provided for simulation of IP cores which output netlists.
VHD or V source-code files: These files are the actual source-code required for both synthesis and simulation of IP cores which output source-code.

edif和ngc区别
SynplifyPro默认生成的网表文件(EDIF)、Xilinx IP Core和XST生成的网表文件(NGC/NGO)
ngc里都是Xilinx fpga的原语; 第三方综合工具综合后是EDIF文件
综合产生的网表文件,包含网络表和约束,是Xilinx自有文件格式,为二进制文件,且被加密了;可以用来进行知识产权保护,例如许多第三方的AllianceCORE就是这样来实现的;(Xilinx自己的LogiCORE有部分是网表,有部分是加密的vhd源程序)
