A prototype sequence-diagram view shows test-bench activity for a sample XBus transaction (Figure 6). In a sequence view, the time axis is vertical, increasing downward. The components appear ...

Figure 1 illustrates the architecture of the verification environment we built in a block diagram. The test is the SystemVerilog top-level program, which instantiates all the SystemVerilog test-bench ...

July 28, 2009 -- SystemVerilog (SV) along with its methodologies is emerging as a unified language for design and verification using object oriented techniques. Companies who have already invested in ...

These quanta (call them packets or transactions) could be single bit operations (like a single logic level plus time interval on a USART TX bit) or complex operations involving multiple clock cycles ...
