The Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) is a popular way to help verify SystemVerilog designs, and it includes a configuration system that unfortunately has some speed and usage issues. Rich Edelman from Siemens EDA wrote a detailed 20-page paper on the topic of how to avoid these issues, and I’ve gone through it to… Read More

Making UVM faster through a new configuration system
A New Verification Conference Coming to Austin
Actually not so new, just new to us in the US. Verification Futures is already well established as a Tessolve event with a 10-year track record in the UK. This year they are bringing the conference to Austin on September 14th (REGISTER HERE).
While DVCon is an ever-popular event for sharing verification ideas, it isn’t always accessible… Read More
Optimizing Return on Investment (ROI) of Emulator Resources
Modern day chips are increasingly complex with stringent quality requirements, very demanding performance requirement and very low power consumption requirement. Verification of these chips is very time consuming and accounts for approximately 70% of the simulation workload on EDA server farms. As software-based simulators… Read More
Full-Stack, AI-driven EDA Suite for Chipmakers
Semiconductor technology is among the most complex of technologies and the semiconductor industry is among the most demanding of industries. Yet the ecosystem has delivered incredible advances over the last six decades from which the world has benefitted tremendously. Yes, of course, the markets want that break-neck speed… Read More
Truechip Introduces Automation Products – NoC Verification and NoC Performance
While Truechip has established itself as a global provider of verification IP (VIP) solutions, they are always on the lookout for strategic IP needs from their customer base. Over the last several years, a solid market for Network-on-Chip (NoC) IP has grown, driven by the need to rapidly move data across a chip. Concurrently, the… Read More
New Cadence Joint Enterprise Data and AI Platform Dramatically Accelerates AI-Driven Chip Design Development
Without data, there is no computing field to talk about, no technology world to awe at and not much of a semiconductor industry to work in. There is no argument that data is the foundational piece for everything, has been to date and will continue to be. While processing an application’s input data is essential to serve the intended… Read More
