Every design verification technique requires coverage metrics to gauge progress, assess effectiveness, and help determine when the design is robust enough for tapeout. At every step of the way and ...

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 ...

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 ...

If functional verification already consumes most of the IC logical design flow, as some studies suggest, what's going to happen as chip complexity reaches 10 million or 100 million gates? The answer ...
