Simulations are an important part of the verification cycle in the process of hardware designing. It can be performed at varying degrees of physical abstraction: In many companies RTL simulations is ...

The post-synthesis gate-level netlist (GL-netlist) based PA simulation input requirements are mostly the same as RTL simulation. However, the design under verification here is the GL-netlist from ...

SynaptiCAD’s Gates-on-the-Fly (GOF), a Verilog netlist editor and incremental schematic viewer, has added schematic back annotation and waveform viewer cross-probing. Using one of SynaptiCAD's ...

In the 1970s, most simulation was at the gate level and primarily used for board level simulation. Commercial simulators included Lasar from Teradyn and Tegas. In 1981, Hilo was created by Brunel ...

Static Timing Analysis (STA) not only acts as a connecting link between backend and frontend design activities, but more importantly helps in bridging the gap between simulation and silicon. STA is ...
