What is test case SystemVerilog?

A testcase is a pattern to check and verify specific features and functionalities of a design. A verification plan lists all the features and other functional items that needs to be verified, and the tests neeeded to cover each of them.

What is difference between Verilog and C?

The main difference between Verilog and C is that the Verilog is a Hardware Description Language while the C is a high level, general-purpose programming language. Verilog is a language that helps to design and verify digital circuits. On the other hand, C is a popular general-purpose programming language.

Is SystemVerilog different to Verilog?

The main difference between Verilog and SystemVerilog is that Verilog is a Hardware Description Language, while SystemVerilog is a Hardware Description and Hardware Verification Language based on Verilog. Verilog is an HDL while SystemVerilog is an HDL as well as HVL. Overall, SystemVerilog is a superset of Verilog.

Is Verilog a subset of SystemVerilog?

In 2009, the standard was merged with the base Verilog (IEEE 1364-2005) standard, creating IEEE Standard 1800-2009. Therefore, Verilog is a subset of SystemVerilog. SystemVerilog for verification uses extensive object-oriented programming techniques and is more closely related to Java than Verilog.

What is directed test case?

Directed Test Cases The test case run data along with submodels information can be viewed in the Test Cases tab or in Eggplant DAI Insights. This capability lets you test specific elements of your system under test.

What is directed testing?

Directed tests are simple tests, wherein a particular scenario is recreated for a known feature, and the expectations are set accordingly. Constraint random tests can cover a wide number of scenarios and/or multiple configurations.

Why are SOC level tests written in C?

This is why most of SOC level tests are in a high level language like C. It need not be strictly C, but could be in other languages which all finally translates to the correct assembly code and an object file that can be loaded in to the memory. ( I have seen Python/Perl also popular to generate SOC level test cases).

Can SystemVerilog be used for SOC verification?

However if you are replacing the processor and some subsystems of SOC with behavioral models – kind of a sub system – then for that verification you can use SystemVerilog. On a related note, you might want to watch the Portable Stimulus initiative from Accelera with an intend to standardize stimulus across various platforms

Is Verilog written in C language?

Verilog is a HDL (Hardware Descriptive Language). C is basically a computer software language. HDLs are specifically for engineers developing design (Analog/Digital) in VLSI platforms like ASIC/ FPGA. They have datatypes called reg, buffer, logical gates and many constructs which C/C++ do not have.

What is the SOC verification course?

The course is for functional verification engineers with module level verification expertise and planning to explore SOC verification. This course is essential for every verification engineer with 5+ years of experience have never got exposure to SOC verification. Types of processors – Cortex-M series, A series.
