Imposed a significant challenge as not enough pins on our design for all compressors. This creates challenges related to the testability, and more importantly, the test cost. In addition, the SoC has multiple instances of many modules. This approach helped us reduce the test data volume...
The resulting netlist will not be accepted by a Verilog simulator, due to these connections to non-existent ports, but is accepted by the analyze command without complaint, and the test ports are hooked up correctly in the end. We added these dummy port connections using a Perl script just ...
In an embodiment, hardware circuits in accordance with this disclosure may be implemented by coding the description of the circuit in a hardware description language (HDL) such as Verilog or VHDL. The HDL description may be synthesized against a library of cells designed for a given integrated ci...
- Catapult HLS will now create verification-optimized RTL so that thesame vectors that cover the input C source will also coverthe output Verilog/VHDL RTL. This reduces the need to write new coverage tests for Catapult-generated RTL. If the engineer does identify any verification holes, Catapult...
For example, the techniques may be implemented in dedicated digital or analog hardware (e.g., determined by programming techniques described above in a hardware description language such as Verilog(tm)), firmware, and/or as an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) or Programmble Gate ...

--- --- --- --- --- --- --- USING SPYGLASS POWER IN OUR DESIGN FLOW: First we run simulation vectors to functionally verify our design; we mostly design in VHDL, with some Verilog. Next, we run Spyglass Power, using the simulation vectors. Spyglass has no problems with mixed lang...
be implemented within an EDA (electronic design automation) system as part of an HDL compile process. Steps of process600may also be implemented with computer executable codes or computer readable languages such as C++, VHDL, Verilog, etc., and contained within an HDL description of a muliplier...
