With the increasing adoption of OVM/UVM, there is a growing demand for guidelines and best practices to ensure successful SoC verification. It is true that the verification problems did not change but ...
My company, TVS, recently completed a SystemC-based Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) project for Blu Wireless Technology, a UK-based company that develops silicon-proven mmWave wireless ...
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 ...
The first major challenge directly comes from the limited data. Unlike software engineering tasks, where large-scale public data is abundant, the hardware domain, especially UVM verification, is ...
When we verify a System on Chip (SoC) that embeds microprocessors with several digital peripherals, and possibly analog blocks as well, we want to check all the implemented features and possible ...
The ARM® AMBA® 4 Coherency Extension (ACE™) specification was officially published more than a year ago. The main driver for the ACE spec is the need to support hardware-managed cache coherency, ...
When we talk about the signoff of digital IP, we are referring to the full verification of a block. Every feature listed in a device’s datasheet requires verification. Furthermore, every register ...
We have all been witnesses to the rapid improvements of the iPhone processor chip every year. With the iPhone 8 featuring the newest A11 Bionic at 10 nm FinFET with 4.3 billion transistors, I can’t ...
