Abstract

This chapter discusses the challenges and opportunities of verifying RTL designs. In particular, we explore the opportunities presented by our proposed design approach. This approach – encapsulating the sequential code in a single state machine and combinational code in a set of functions – allows us to develop some powerful module level verification techniques. These techniques get us closer to a complete verification strategy than is possible using traditional design and coding practices.
