Verilog-1995 and -2001 limit reg variables to behavioral statements such as RTL code. SystemVerilog extends the reg type so it can be driven by a single driver such as gate or module. SystemVerilog names this type "logic" to remind users that it has this extra capability and is not a hardware register. The names "logic" and "reg" are ...
The UVM class library brings a framework and automation to the SystemVerilog language such as sequences and data automation features (packing, copy, compare) etc., and unlike the previous methodologies developed independently by EDA (Electronic Design Automation) Vendors, is an Accellera standard with support from multiple vendors: Aldec ...
A BFM is typically implemented using hardware description languages such as Verilog, VHDL, SystemC, or SystemVerilog. Typically, BFMs offer a two-sided interface: One interface side drives and samples low-level signals according to the bus protocol. On its other side, tasks are available to create and respond to bus transactions.
Verilog was later submitted to IEEE and became IEEE Standard 1364-1995, commonly referred to as Verilog-95. In the same time frame Cadence initiated the creation of Verilog-A to put standards support behind its analog simulator Spectre. Verilog-A was never intended to be a standalone language and is a subset of Verilog-AMS which encompassed ...
SystemVerilog DPI (Direct Programming Interface) is an interface which can be used to interface SystemVerilog with foreign languages. These foreign languages can be C, C++, SystemC as well as others. DPIs consist of two layers: a SystemVerilog layer and a foreign language layer. Both the layers are isolated from each other.
System Verilog is the first major HDL to offer object orientation and garbage collection. Using the proper subset of hardware description language, a program called a synthesizer, or logic synthesis tool , can infer hardware logic operations from the language statements and produce an equivalent netlist of generic hardware primitives [ jargon ...
Icarus Verilog is an implementation of the Verilog hardware description language compiler that generates netlists in the desired format and a simulator. It supports the 1995, 2001 and 2005 versions of the standard, portions of SystemVerilog , and some extensions.
A class may contain fields, methods, ports and constraints. Fields can be of type integer, real, enum, string and even complex objects. The code segment shows a unit called 'environment_u' being instantiated within the e root 'sys'. This environment_u class contains a list of 5 packet_s objects and this packet_s class contains two fields and a ...
