Globetech Solutions Announces STIL Verifier, Shortest Path between Verification and Test

--Globetech Solutions, premier provider of standards-based verification and test IP products and EDA solutions, today announced the availability of STIL Verifier™, a product aimed at automating the transition between verification and test.

Based on the IEEE 1450 Standard Test Interface Language (STIL) standard, STIL Verifier can produce or validate complete test programs, allowing engineers to automate tedious and error prone transitions to and from Automated Test Equipment (ATE) environments.  STIL Verifier comprises two flows: STIL Simulate™ parses, validates and imports STIL programs into simulation-based verification environments. STIL Capture™ records and exports complete verification scenarios, trivializing functional test program generation and speeding up silicon debug flows.

STIL Verifier interfaces to popular IEEE standard verification languages such as ‘e’ and SystemVerilog, allowing for early incorporation of STIL in the design process and co-verification of STIL with RTL, design netlists and embedded test structures.

“Testability is a key DFM challenge facing the entire semiconductor ecosystem”, said Stylianos Diamantidis, Managing Director and CTO of Globetech Solutions. “STIL Verifier makes working with STIL faster and easier, facilitating collaboration between test and verification experts and contributing directly to reduced time-to-volume.”

Availability

STIL Verifier is currently available for ‘e’ environments. SystemVerilog support will be available later in Q4 2006. Visit http://www.globetechsolutions.com/products/stil for a FREE 30-day evaluation.
