At the beginning of September, Aldec announced the new version of HES.Proto-AXI software, our host to FPGA bridge solution. This tool supports QEMU for Co-Verification purposes which is considered as one of the main features....

Heterogeneous System on Chip (SoC) devices like the Xilinx Zynq 7000 and Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC combine a high-performance processing system (PS) with state-of-the-art programmable logic (PL)....

In today's world, when the entire computing industry is talking about high-performance and high-speed applications using FPGAs, just what are the factors that can assure such performance and speed?...

In this blog, I will discuss randomized layered testbenches used in SystemVerilog. We need to understand why we need it, ...

In this blog, I am going to discuss different phases that UVM follows. The reason why UVM came up with such phases is because synchronization among all design-testbench was necessary. Using Verilog and VHDL,...

In this blog, my major focus is on explaining the concepts such as Sequence, Sequencer, Driver and showing how the communication takes place from sequence to sequencer and from sequencer to driver. In the previous blog, I included...

Data analysis is often a very time consuming process for a hardware design or verification engineer. We always end up using the waveform viewer which may not be very efficient in giving us a high-level overview of what we’re looking for. Data that is spread across...

Creativity and innovation, which lead the society to success, rest on the foundational institutions such as schools and universities. They provide fertile soil to seed, grow and flourish enterprises....

We have all been witnesses to the rapid improvements of the iPhone processor chip every year. With the iPhone 8 featuring the newest A11 Bionic at 10 nm FinFET with 4.3 billion transistors, I can’t personally fathom the amount...

FPGA Design Verification Challenge The FPGA design and verification “ecosystem” changes rapidly to keep pace with the fast growing size of FPGA devices. The largest Xilinx Virtex UltraSCALE chips provide 4.4 Million logic cells...
