  • The Importance of Simulation in the Pursuit of Absolute Speed!

    Resource (Verification Horizons Blog) - Apr 02, 2024 by Sunil Sahoo

    I recently had an opportunity to talk to someone who worked in the high-frequency trading (HFT) sector a few years ago. I wanted to know how they performed their functional simulations. If you know anything about HFT or low-latency trading, you know that those engineers are very secretive and don’t divulge a lot of details about what their FPGA design-verification process entails.

  • Questa Check Connect Fact Sheet

    Resource (Fact Sheet) - Apr 01, 2024 by Nicolae Tusinschi

    Questa Check Connect offers a distinct approach for verifying interconnect integrity within designs. It facilitates scalable verification for extra-large System-on-Chips (SoCs) through automated and exhaustive formal analysis. The solution is designed for easy deployment, delivering unique capabilities for conclusive results in complex connectivity challenges that surpass traditional capacity limits.

  • Enhancing PCIe Verification: How to Step Off the Map

    Article - Mar 01, 2024 by Irivinti Shiva Teja - Siemens EDA

    This article intends to propose a range of strategies that an RC might use to ‘generate’ addresses that fall outside the standard scope, along with a detailed examination of the subtle complexities involved. Initially, we will explore two relatively simple methods to accomplish this. Following that, we will analyze the limitations inherent in these methods.

  • Tool Assisted Debug in Visualizer

    Article - Mar 01, 2024 by Richa Jha - Siemens EDA

    Verification is one of the primary challenges in current times when designs are huge, and corresponding testbenches are equally large. Both the design and testbench work together to fulfill the desired expectations of the designer. Everything goes well until the simulation does not work as expected. This is where Visualizer, the debug platform, plays a crucial role in figuring out where the problem lies. Visualizer requires multiple databases to provide the debug features.

  • Formal Verification: An Introduction and Exploration of Challenges

    Article - Mar 01, 2024 by Yusuf Eren - ANKASYS

    Nowadays, the formal verification is getting more popular compared to the conventional simulation-based verification. The main idea behind the formal verification is to mathematically prove or disprove the correctness of a design with respect to the specification or requirement and ensure that the design behaves as intended under all possible scenarios. To achieve this, the formal verification tools are using Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT) solver engines.
