Verifying Safety-Critical FPGA Designs With Fault Simulation
By Synopsys - 12 Jan, 2021 - Comments: 0

Supporting safety and assurance in designs, such as the chips used in industrial, aerospace and defense applications, requires more than traditional functional verification. Even if every bug is found and fixed before release, these applications have additional requirements for functional safety. They must be able to handle a variety of faults and induced errors, either by correcting them or by... » read more
