An Important Next Step for Portable Stimulus Adoption
Portable stimulus has been a hot topic for a couple of years in the EDA and semiconductor industries. Many observers see this approach as the next major advance in verification beyond the Universal Verification Methodology (UVM), and the next step higher in abstraction for specifying verification intent. The basic idea is to … Read More
With Great Power Comes Great Visuality
Every system-on-chip (SoC) designer worries about power. Many widely used electronics applications run on batteries, including smartphones, tablets, autonomous vehicles, and many Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices. Even “big iron” products such as network switches and compute servers must be careful when it comes to power… Read More
Renaming and Refactoring in HDL Code
I’ve enjoyed my past discussions with Cristian Amitroaie, the CEO of AMIQ EDA, in which we covered their Design and Verification Tools (DVT) Eclipse Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and their Verissimo SystemVerilog Testbench Linter. Cristian’s descriptions of AMIQ’s products and customers have intrigued me. They… Read More
I Thought that Lint Was a Solved Problem
A few months back, we interviewed Cristian Amitroaie, the CEO of AMIQ EDA. We talked mostly about their Design and Verification Tools (DVT) Eclipse Integrated Development Environment (IDE) and how it helps design and verification engineers develop code in SystemVerilog and several other languages. Cristian also mentioned… Read More
