The need to improve functional verification productivity and quality continues to grow. The 2004/2002 IC/ASIC Functional Verification Study, by Collett International Research, shows that logic or ...

Exhaustive functional coverage promises to revolutionize the design of ICs and other digital systems. Exhaustive coverage is now a genuine possibility because the scientific and mathematical ...

System-on-a-chip (SoC) functional verification involves integrating multiple intellectual property (IP) blocks. Accordingly, understanding how to define, measure, correlate, and analyze appropriate IP ...

With the addition of a standard assertion-language link, the 360 Module Verifier (360 MV), a functional verification environment, is equipped to fully leverage both SystemVerilog assertions and Open ...

In the past five years, few topics have received more attention in the trade press than design reuse. As system-on-chip (SoC) devices increase in complexity, resources become more scarce and market ...

This paper discusses the functional verification of IP cores and problems which arise during their implemenation in today’s advanced applications. First, the usual approach to functional ...

This paper presents a comprehensive literature review for applying large language models (LLM) in multiple aspects of functional verification. Despite the promising advancements offered by this new ...

FPGA engineers are all doing functional verification using manual processes but growing system comlexity is the issue. Changing tools and methodologies may seem daunting, but there is a way to break ...

Functional coverage is the major part of functional verification closure, as it directs the functional verification, as it demonstrates/measures the completeness of functional verification and also it ...

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) will be the culmination of dozens of highly complex systems, incorporating state-of-the-art technologies in electronics hardware, sensors, software, and more. Conceiving and ...
