RISC-V Formal Verification for ISA Compliance
When: 7 July 2020, 18.00 British Summer Time
Presenter: Dr Ashish Darbari & Xiaolin Chen, Synopsys
Verify beyond doubt that your design works
RISC-V is an open standard instruction set architecture. It has experienced exponential growth in recent years, enabling users to design custom processors more quickly and cost effectively to meet today’s demand for more technological innovations in the CPU, GPU, AI, ML spaces.
However, verification of the processor to find all corner-case bugs from the architectural and microarchitectural levels pose a tremendous challenge for dynamic simulation and emulation. Formal verification is known for its ability to prove the absence of bugs as well as find those complex corner-case bugs.
In this webinar, we will present a solution powered by a unique combination of Synopsys VC Formal apps and Axiomise’s RISC-V ISA formal solution enabling fast corner-case bug hunting, and exhaustive proofs of bug absence obtaining ISA compliance for RISC-V.
