摘要
简要分析了传统集成电路(ASIC)验证方法的特点以及将这些方法应用于系统级芯片(SoC)验证时所面临的问题。在此基础上,论述说明了模块级验证是提高SoC验证效率的基础;而基于随机测试激励的验证方法能够提升SoC的功能验证的覆盖率。另外,还介绍了用于SoC功能验证的关键方法,包括断言和RTL形式验证,Farm,随机化测试激励和功能覆盖等。
This paper first analyzes the difficulties the traditional ASIC verification method will face for SoC verification. Then the paper shows that: through block level verification will improve the SoC functional verification efficiency; Constrained Random Test bench Automation technology will increase the functional coverage for SoC verification. Some other techniques are also introduced in this paper including: Assertion and RTL Formal verification, Farm, Random Test Stimulus and Functional Coverage.
