Functional Coverage Plan Management - What's the Secret Sauce?
March 3, 2014
Verification completeness of design functionality is a very important aspect for verification engineer. You could say it is almost as important as food is to life!
One very important metric towards verification completeness is functional coverage. Functional coverage is a guide for directing verification completeness and convergence, by identifying covered and uncovered portions of the design. However, defining coverage can be quite a tedious process, especially when dealing with a complex design. So whats our secret sauce to solve this problem? Read on to find out.
