My description is not accurate enough, this is OpenCores PTC IP, and PWM
is one of those modes, so it might be better to replace compatible with
"opencores, ptc-pwm"

What do you think?

Sorry, maybe this answers maybe doesn't. What is "PTC"?

"pwm timer counter". AFAIU, the IP can be configured to provide all 3.
I think that William pointed out on an earlier revision that they have
only implemented the pwm on their hardware.
I don't think putting in "ptc" is a sufficient differentiator though, as
clearly there could be several different versions of "ptc-pwm" that have
the same concern about "all designs from OpenCores for now till the next
100 years" being compatible.

Cheers.
Conor.

Hiļ¼ŒConor and Krzysztof,

After discussion and review of materials, we plan to use "opencores,ptc-pwm-v1"
as this version of compatible, so that it can also be compatible in the future.

What do you think?


Best regards,
William

Perhaps noting what "ptc" stands for in the description field would be a
good idea.

Do we know that it is actually "v1" of the IP? I would suggest using the
version that actually matches the version of the IP that you are using
in your SoC.

Thanks,
Conor.

There is no version list on their official website, so it is not certain whether
it is v1, but at least the driver is the first version.

What do you think is the best way?

Thanks,
William

I don't have an account, so I cannot open the "ptc_spec.pdf at this link:
https://opencores.org/projects/ptc/downloads
but I would take whatever documentation you have for the spec and see
what it says as the revision on the front cover.
