For crossing clock domains, the AXI4 Stream interconnect is based on switches capable of transferring data to another asynchronous clock domain. The alternative solution is a dual-port AXI4 Stream IP, capable of changing clock domains when packet routing is not required. Static and dynamic clock domain crossing (CDC) verification methods complement each other to ensure flawless operation of multi-clock designs. ALDEC_CDC rules plugin contains 58 rules for checking design quality, design constraints, and clock and reset trees. It is also used for validating design synchronization circuits. However, static CDC verification methods alone may not guarantee the completeness of the CDC verification task. Dynamic CDC verification is crucial. The two main methods for dynamic CDC verification are checking with CDC assertions and modeling of random delay insertion on clock domain crossings. In this webinar, we will introduce both static and dynamic verification methods for CDC verification of AXI4 Stream-based IPs. We will discuss the CDC assertions that are auto-generated from ALINT-PRO, and we will also demonstrate the design and usage of the synchronizer models with random delay insertion.

Time to market is shortening as well as the lifetime of new designs. In order to be able to meet all those requirements a new approach to the design process is required. Active-HDL White Papers System Simulation of Versal ACAP Designs Versal ACAP, developed by Xilinx/AMD, is a groundbreaking adaptable platform composed of AI Engine (AIE), Processing System (PS), Programmable Logic (PL), Network on Chip (NoC) and a wide range of hardened domain-specific IPs. Versal ACAP enables the efficient execution of complex algorithms and accelerates workloads, including machine learning, embedded computing, and high-performance computing. In this webinar, we will introduce Versal ACAP (and discuss the different types of simulation flows and models available) and QEMU (the open-source system emulator) and its co-simulation interface with Riviera-PRO. We will also show how to run a system simulation of a Versal example design. Riviera-PRO supports system simulation of Versal ACAP designs based on the Vitis™ hardware emulation flow for testing the interactions between PL, PS and AIE. The entire hardware emulation setup and system integration is done within the Vitis environment. It runs the AIE simulator for the graph application, Riviera-PRO’s simulator for the PL kernels, and QEMU for the PS host application. SystemC models are also available for the AIE and NoC, which can also be simulated in Riviera-PRO.

Fortunately, Open Source VHDL Verification Methodology (OSVVM) provides library utilities to simplify these tasks. This presentation covers the details of OSVVMs transcript utility in TranscrptPkg as well as OSVVM's logs, alerts, and affirmations in AlertLogPkg. Testbench printing consists of messages from different entities. To collect the output from different sources into a single file will generally result in the usage of OUTPUT and intermingling of test results with simulator messages. OSVVM transcripts allow the collection of all test outputs into either OUTPUT or a named file. Printing in VHDL involves TEXTIO which requires multiple calls to write followed by a call to writeline. OSVVM focuses on printing type string and uses the VHDL-2008 to_string functions to handle any necessary conversions. Hence, simple printing is a single call to print. Going further will test the need to filter messages. Only print a particular message during the debug. Print another message when testing is complete and we need printing to document what tests were run and passed. OSVVM is capable of handling this through its logging utility. Error handling in tests can be complicated and error prone. Error handling involves printing (the easy part) and error counting. Unfortunately, the error counting requires a separate signal for each process that can detect an error. When the test completes, we sum up all of the error sources and print a pass / fail report. OSVVM handles error counting and printing via its Alert and Affirm procedures. When one of these detects an error, it records it in a data structure that is inside the AlertLogPkg. When the test completes, the test writer calls ReportAlerts and a pass/fail report is produced.
