Designing with synchronous clocks avoids metastability issues on clock domain crossings, but it presents its own challenges when multi-cycle and false paths are involved. A multi-cycle path (MCP) ...
Logic simulation is an interesting beast. Most engineers know what it does and what it's for, but few understand its subtle ramifications. Several techniques exist for verifying the functionality of a ...
The DesignWare ARC nSIM Instruction Set Simulator aims to address these challenges by providing two simulation modes; a fast-functional mode and a near cycle accurate mode. The fast-functional mode is ...
