商品描述
The Second Edition of Writing
Testbenches, Functional Verification of HDL Models presents
the latest verification techniques to produce fully functional first silicon
ASICs, systems-on-a-chip (SoC), boards and entire systems.
From the Foreword:
Building on the first edition, " ...the most successful and popular contemporary verification textbook", the author raises the verification level of abstraction by introducing coverage-driven constrained random transaction-level self-checking testbenches - all made possible through the introduction of hardware verification languages (HVLs) such as e from Verisity and OpenVera from Synopsys...."

Topics included in the new Second Edition:
- Discussions on OpenVera and e;
- approaches for writing constrainable random stimulus generators;
- strategies for making testbenches self-checking;
- a clear blueprint of a verification process that aims for first time success;
- recent advances in functional verification such as coverage-driven verification process;
- VHDL and Verilog language semantics;
- the semantics are presented in new verification-oriented languages
- techniques for applying stimulus and monitoring the response of a design;
- behavioral modeling using non-synthesizeable constructs and coding style;
- updated for Verilog 2001.
