Synopsys Formality vO-2018.06 SP1 Formality and Formality UltraVerifies the Toughest Designs Synthesized with Design Compiler Formality® is an equivalence-checking (EC) solution that uses formal, static techniques to determine if two versions of a design are functionally equivalent. The size and complexity of today’s designs, coupled with the challenges of meeting timing, area, power and schedule, requires that the newest, most advanced synthesis optimizations be fully verifiable. Formality supports all DC Ultra and Design Compiler Graphical optimizations and so provides the highest quality of results that are fully verifiable. Formality supports verification of power-up and power-down states, multi-voltage, multi-supply and clock gated designs. Formality Ultra adds innovative matching and verification technologies to efficiently guide designers through the implementation of functional ECOs...

Synopsys Identify vN-2018.03 SP1 FOR WIN/LINUX Identify RTL DebuggerSimulator-like Visibility into FPGA Hardware Operation The Identify® RTL debugger allows you to instrument RTL HDL and then, still at the RT-Level, debug the implemented FPGA on live, running hardware. The Identify FPGA debug software verifies a design in hardware, similar to simulation – only much faster and with in-system stimuli. The Identify RTL debugger allows you to designate sample triggers, navigate the design graphically, and mark signals in the RTL that are to serve as probes. After synthesis, the results are viewed and annotated onto the RTL source code, the HDL Analyst® RTL View, or third party, waveform viewer. This ensures RTL-to-implementation equivalence and correct operation of the FPGA design.Key Features...
