popularity

Description

Products included SimWave/ISDB, for visualization of digital/analog data, Vera, a verification system for Verilog designers, Magellan, a Verilog debugging environment, PowerSim, a dynamic power analyzer, and PowerFault-Iddq, the only easy-to-use IDDQ solution in the market.
VERA-SV provides an automated virtual prototype where both hardware and software verification can proceed concurrently. VERA-SV can automatically generate functional tests that mimic the target environment for the chips, thereby creating a virtual prototype complete with all the software including device drivers and application code. During simulation, VERA-SV can monitor coverage points in the design and/or in the generator and use the coverage results to dynamically generate new tests to cover untested areas. This feedback loop, coupled with directed, random, and constrained random test generation, facilitates quick convergence on high quality tests.
