摘要:

现有基于断言、形式化等的验证方法可保证电路按要求工作,但无法完成对设计的全验证。文中将软件验证环境与硬件加速器相结合,组成了软硬件联合验证平台,其在结构上既发挥了硬件加速器运行速度快的优点,又利用了面向对象的验证方法和可重用性高的优势。实验结果表明,针对复杂电路,验证平台使验证效率和验证覆盖率提高了3~10倍。

关键词: 硬件加速, 协同验证, 验证效率, 可重用

Abstract:

As the most popular methods of verification,assertion-based verification and formal verification can ensure the circuit working normally.Although the circuit by this method satisfies the requirements of designer,it cannot be tested completely without error.In this paper,a software-hardware cooperation verification platform is presented,which increases the speed and reusability of verification using hardware accelerator and object-oriented verification.The experimental results show that the verification efficiency and coverage improve three to ten times in complex circuit verification.

Key words: hardware acceleration;co-verification;verification efficiency;reusable
