Directed Verification Technique with a set of directed tests is extremely time-consuming and difficult to maintain for more complex designs to verify. Directed tests only cover scenarios that have been anticipated by the verification team by going through specifications, This can lead to costly re-spins and still, there are chances of missing time to market…
Nowadays we use to deal with modules of Verilog or VHDL or a combination of both. Mostly verification engineers are not allowed to modify these modules. But still, SVA addition to these modules is required, and easy to verify a lot of RTL functionality. How can you add SVA to these modules? Let’s find out…
A semaphore allows you to control access to a resource. Conceptually, a semaphore is a bucket. When a semaphore is allocated, a bucket that contains a fixed number of keys is created. Processes using semaphores must first procure a key from the bucket before they can continue to execute. If a specific process requires a…
Dynamic Array: Usage of dynamic array when user to allocate its size for storage during run time. Dynamic array store a contiguous collection of data. The array indexing should be always integer type. To allocate the size of a dynamic array, we have to use a new[] operator. Example: How to resize a dynamic array?…
Many times we might use the Base Class or Base Class library provided by third party sources. By default, These Class Members are Public in nature. It means these Class Members can be accessed directly from outside of that Class. But sometimes Base Class providers may restrict how others can access the Class members as…
