SystemVerilog is an extensive set of enhancements to the IEEE 1364 Verilog-2001 standard. These enhancements provide powerful new capabilities for modeling hardware at the RTL and system level, along ...

ASICs provide a solution for capturing high performance complex design concepts and preventing competitors from simply implementing comparable designs. However, creating an ASIC is a high-investment ...

The latest VCS Verilog simulator from Synopsys contains built-in comprehensive coverage analysis. With it, design teams using VCS 6.0.1 can determine their verification quality before tapeout.

Its use results in faster development, cleaner testbenches, and a modern software-oriented approach to validating FPGA and ASIC designs without replacing your existing simulator.

These days, verification of the most complex designs is performed using a standard verification methodology, probably SystemVerilog-based UVM. Many verification teams have ramped up on UVM, but others ...
