Mentor Forum for Verification - Crossing the barrier to Advanced Functional Verification - Munich, Germany

Overview

Traditionally FPGA design flows do not include large amounts of verification prior to heading into the lab. Today’s FPGA devices however, are growing dramatically in both size and complexity such that FPGA design teams verification needs almost match those previously reserved for ASIC design.

For FPGA the worry is not about errors and tape out costs but extended debug times in the lab resulting in unpredictable schedules and unacceptable costly and difficult to debug failures in the field.

Compared to the ASIC world, FPGA team have historically invested less time and money adopting new verification methodologies and tools, particularly when productivity results are not immediately apparent.

Who Should Attend

FPGA design and verification engineers and managers looking to understand how they could improve their FPGA verification environment with easy to adopt advanced techniques, flows and tools.
