[Mark] starts a post from a bit ago with: “… maybe you have also heard that SystemVerilog is simply an extension of Verilog, focused on testing and verification.” This is both true and false, ...

Survey hardware design teams and you’ll find that the old saw is true: anywhere from 60% to 80% of the overall design cycle is consumed not with design itself, but rather with the nerve-wracking ...

As designs grow in size and complexity, the challenges associated with low power and the growing design and verification gap have created the need for a paradigm shift in the IP design and ...

Designers of electronic hardware describe the behavior and structure of system and circuit designs using hardware description languages (HDLs)—specialized programming languages commonly known as VHDL, ...

With the advent of a new era in verification technology based on an advanced HVL like System Verilog, the concept of random stimulus based verification was born, to verify today’s multi‐million gate ...
