Abstract:Verifying ASIC designs containing large VLSI cells is difficult and time consuming. Simulation models can be a bottleneck in the verification process when they are inefficient or fail to provide features that aid in circuit verification and debug. These models also must accurately represent the behavior of the physical part. This paper discusses how behavioral models providing these required features can be produced in reasonable time frames.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
