This book provides a
hands-on, application-oriented guide to the language and methodology of both
SystemVerilog Assertions and SystemVerilog Functional Coverage. Readers will
benefit from the step-by-step approach to functional hardware verification
using SystemVerilog Assertions and Functional Coverage, which will enable them
to uncover hidden and hard to find bugs, point directly to the source of the
bug, provide for a clean and easy way to model complex timing checks and
objectively answer the question ‘have we functionally verified everything’.
Written by a professional end-user of ASIC/SoC/CPU and FPGA design and
Verification, this book explains each concept with easy to understand examples,
simulation logs and applications derived from real projects. Readers will be
empowered to tackle the modeling of complex checkers for functional
verification, thereby drastically reducing their time to design and
debug.
This updated second edition addresses the latest functional
set released in IEEE-1800 (2012) LRM, including numerous additional operators
and features. Additionally, many of the Concurrent Assertions/Operators
explanations are enhanced, with the addition of more examples and figures.
