The softcore processor PicoBlaze is an OpenCore or not?

[Makni]

Hello everybody,

I am a beginner in the domain of soft core processor.

I want to know if the PicoBlaze softcore processor is an openCore or not?

Thanks in advance.

No, it is not "open source", but you are allowed to use it for free in Xilinx devices.
If you want a soft core processor you can use for free in any device, look at Mico8 or Mico32 from Lattice, or the OpenRISC processor.

Thanks a lot for your reply
I am working with the board Virtex 5 ML507 and the version 12.4 of xilinx ISE, but the problem is that this xilinx device doesn't support the picoblaze softcore.
So, I want to know what are the other boards (Xilinx devices) which support the PicoBlaze SoftCore.

Thanks for your help

There is at least one version of PicoBlaze (KCPSM3) that should work with your board:
