Abstract: Code coverage plays an important role in verification. It is essential to meet the target numbers for the code coverage metrics at the end of functional verification. The verification of a ...

For years the process of ASIC and FPGA design and verification debug consisted primarily of comprehending the structure and source code of the design with waveforms showing activity over time, based ...

Ensuring the reliability and performance of complex digital systems has two fundamental aspects: functional verification and digital design. Digital Design predominantly focuses on the architecture of ...

PARTNER CONTENT Given the size and complexity of modern semiconductor designs, functional verification has become a dominant phase in the development cycle. Coverage lies at the very heart of this ...

Coverage dominates every aspect of verification for today’s complex IP and chip designs. Coverage metrics provide critical feedback on what has been verified and what has not, especially when ...

The huge undertaking of verifying a system-on-chip (SoC) design has challenged engineers for more than 20 years –– the amount of time spent on it hasn’t varied much from between 50-70% of the entire ...
