Here are some of the key outtakes of that discussio... » read more

RTL Fault Coverage Estimation

By Various Writers - 26 Aug, 2010 - Comments: 0

This paper describes a method for estimating fault coverage from register transfer level (RTL) descriptions of complex circuits. The method does not require automatic test pattern generation (ATPG) or the use of fault simulation and therefore offers the advantage of very rapid turnaround with no additional user effort. An important benefit is the means for a user to quickly determine the change... » read more

SoC Physical Closure Begins At RTL

By Various Writers - 16 Jun, 2010 - Comments: 0

Any survey of chip design teams consistently points to two problem areas impacting quality and schedule of today's SoCs. Those areas are: a) completeness of verification, and b) physical design closure for area, timing and power for complex IP's and SoC's. With the advent of deep sub-micron technology, these problem areas have become exacerbated. In this White Paper, we take a closer look at th... » read more
