The post-synthesis gate-level netlist (GL-netlist) based PA simulation input requirements are mostly the same as RTL simulation. However, the design under verification here is the GL-netlist from ...

If there's a truism in design debug and test, it's that the earlier you can find a bug, the less costly it is to fix. Thus, finding bugs at RTL is far preferable to finding them after synthesis. With ...

Before we plunge headfirst into the fray with gusto and abandon (and aplomb, of course), let’s remind and reassure ourselves that—although the following discussions focus on the devices and ...

In the early days of digital design, all circuits were designed manually. You would draw K-map, optimize the logic and draw the schematics. If you remember, we all ...

The research team led by Researcher Tianyu Wang from the School of Integrated Circuits at Shandong University has systematically reviewed the latest advances in emerging memristors for in-memory ...

Verification had always been an important part of SOC design flow. As SOCs are getting more and more complex, so is their verification. Verification of a design involves simulating the all possible ...

One of the most significant challenges facing verification teams using prototypes based on field-programmable gate-array (FPGA) is understanding the prototyped system’s internal behavior when it fails ...
