Hierarchical Verification for EC-FPGA Flow

By OneSpin Solutions - 27 Oct, 2021 - Comments: 0

This document describes the methodology to apply EC-FPGA verification using hierarchical netlists. This approach is recommended in case the verification of the overall design has issues with convergence. The document contains a step-by-step description of different methods while providing reasoning for the soundness of each approach. It is assumed for this document that the reader is familiar w... » read more

Processing With FPGAs On Mars

By Farhad Fallahlalehzari - 25 Mar, 2021 - Comments: 0

Tasked with finding life in the form of microorganisms, the rover Perseverance landed on Mars at about 04:00 EST on February 18, 2021. The rover has multiple sensors and cameras to collect as much data as possible and, due to the volume of live data being recorded and the long data transmission time from Mars to Earth, a powerful processing system is essential. However, whereas early Mars ro... » read more

HDL Simulation Acceleration Solution For Microchip FPGA Designs

By Aldec - 23 Nov, 2020 - Comments: 0

Mission-critical FPGA designs for space and radar applications continue to increase in complexity, such that they require a comprehensive and robust verification environment. There are hardware-in-the-loop solutions in the market that utilize FPGA boards, but when it comes to establishing functional coverage and debugging the custom logic, users would typically need to go back to HDL simulation... » read more
