Moving Beyond Assertions: An Innovative Approach to Low-Power Checking Using UPF Tcl Apps


This paper uses examples and case studies to demonstrate how to leverage UPF 3.0 information model TCL query functions (aka Tcl Apps) and tool provided CLI commands to do low-power checking of a design. This is an innovative way to dynamically verify the low-power intent after simulation has completed and all waveforms are available. The paper also explains how users can write their own checker... » read more
