VHDL Testbench : Call for stories

Hello everyone.

I have been busy with work and life over the past two years. This makes it difficult to find the time or the will to publish new articles. After a full day of coding and verification, I just do not have the drive to write and code in my spare time.


I am currently working with a consulting group called XtremeEDA. We are specialists in the field of verification and design of integrated circuits. Clients of XtremeEDA are those companies that produce silicon designs of all sizes and applications. Some of the clients of XtremeEDA are the biggest players in the semi-conductor industry. This includes EDA vendors.


The contracts I have worked on, this past couple of years, have been a VHDL DO-254 project and some smaller projects proving IP for large SOC designs. I plan to post more information about how the VHDL Testbench can be used for DO-254 verification efforts.


This post is mainly a call for readers to post up some information about how they used the VHDL Testbench for their verification efforts. With the number of pages having been read, above 10,000 there has to be a few that actually used the VHDL Testbench package for something. For those that did use the VHDL Testbench, I like to hear how it was used, problems encountered, solutions to the problems and any general description of usage. I am sure that future readers will find the stories interesting and possibly useful. Hearing from users may also inspire me to write more about VHDL Testbench usage.


NOTE: If you do post something, please do not post proprietary information. If you work for a company then you most likely know what this means. For those that do not, please do not post details about your “design” if you do not own it. For test bench users, you can describe everything except details about code produced in BFMs and instructions, unless you are the owner.

To post something, simplely add a comment to this post.  Once I reveiw it, as long as it is realated to this blog, it will be published.
