Verilator is now used within academic research, open source projects and for commercial semiconductor development. It is part of the growing body of free electronic design automation (EDA) software. It is free and open-source software released under a GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL) 3.0 only, or an Artistic License 2.0.
The original Verilog simulator, Gateway Design's Verilog-XL was the first (and only, for a time) Verilog simulator to be qualified for ASIC (validation) sign-off. After its acquisition by Cadence Design Systems, Verilog-XL changed very little over the years, retaining an interpreted language engine, and freezing language-support at Verilog-1995.
SPICE, Verilog, Spectre netlists; plug-ins: Ngspice: n/a 2024 Windows, macOS, Linux Backend simulator for Altium Designer, Eagle, KiCad, Qucs-S [15] SPICE [16] UC Berkeley: 1993 Source-only End-of-life, no longer updated; historically important, because many analog simulators are based on this project Xyce [17] Sandia National Laboratories: 2023
Released under the GNU General Public License, Icarus Verilog is free software, an alternative to proprietary software like Cadence's Verilog-XL. As of release 0.9, Icarus is composed of a Verilog compiler (including a Verilog preprocessor) with support for plug-in backends, and a virtual machine that simulates the design.
Register-transfer-level abstraction is used in hardware description languages (HDLs) like Verilog and VHDL to create high-level representations of a circuit, from which lower-level representations and ultimately actual wiring can be derived. Design at the RTL level is typical practice in modern digital design.
TINA software is available in installable and cloud-based versions. Feature versions exist for use in industry [6] and for educational use. [2] [7] TINA allows simulation, design, and real-time testing of hardware description language (HDL), such as VHDL, VHDL-AMS, Verilog, Verilog-A, Verilog-AMS, SystemVerilog and SystemC and for microcontroller (MCU) circuits, [2] as well as mixed electronic ...
SystemVerilog, standardized as IEEE 1800, a technical standard of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, is a hardware description and hardware verification language used to model, design, simulate, test and implement electronic systems.
ModelSim uses a unified kernel for simulation of all supported languages, and the method of debugging embedded C code is the same as VHDL or Verilog. [ 2 ] ModelSim and Questa Sim products enable simulation, verification and debugging for the following languages: [ 2 ]
