Driven by the need to objectively measure the progress of their verification efforts and the contributions of different verification techniques, IC designers have adopted coverage as a metric. However ...
Continuing with the coal seam thickness example from the "Getting Started" section, this example asks a more complicated question. This question is economic in nature, and the (approximate) answer ...
During IC design, worst-case simulations help designers account for variations in characteristics of PNP and NPN transistors and base and polysilicon resistors. These four classes of devices alone ...
