Verification Signoff of HLS C++/SystemC Designs

Adoption of HLS (High-Level Synthesis) continues to grow yet there is also a need for associated HLV (High-Level Verification) methodologies. The motivation for this need is verification at the C++ level (versus RTL) has been shown to reduce overall verification costs by as much as 80%. This webinar introduces Catapult “HLS-Aware” C++/SystemC verification tools and flows that will efficiently help find and eliminate bugs early, ensure C→RTL correctness and rapidly close coverage on both the C++ design source and the HLS-generated RTL.

What You Will Learn

  • HLV tools and flows thus providing opportunity for verification signoff of HLS C++ design source
  • Examples include:

    • Using lint and formal tools to ensure correctness of C++ design source prior to synthesis
    • Using portable stimulus to target efficient constrained random stimulus for C++ test benches
    • Achieving both code and functional coverage goals on the HLS C++ design source
    • Use of SLEC formal methods to confirm equivalence between the generated RTL and the C++ design source

Who Should View

  • Project leads curious to learn how HLV can improve productivity and reduce schedule uncertainty
  • Teams considering HLS and curios to learn about the corresponding HLV methodologies
  • Design and Verification teams currently using HLS yet curious to learn what's new on the HLV side
