摘要:
Embodiments herein present a method for automated simulation testbench generation for serializer/deserializer datapath systems. The method provides a database of transactors for generating and checking data within the datapath system, wherein the transactors are adaptable to arbitrary configurations of the datapath system. The database is provided with a single set of transactors per core. Next, the method automatically selects one set of transactors from the database for inclusion into the simulation testbenches. Following this, the method maps the first datapath and the second datapath through the datapath system by interconnecting the selected set of the transactors with the datapath system. The method further comprises setting control pins on the cores to facilitate propagation of the data through the cores of the datapath system. Subsequently, the control pins are traced to input ports and control registers.

A digital circuit simulation method. The method starts with a digital circuit design which includes: a first source latch, a destination latch, a logic cone, a first WAM circuit electrically coupling an output of the first source latch to a first input of the logic cone, and a WAGG circuit electrically coupling an output of the logic cone and an input of the first source latch. Then, a zero-delay simulation is performed in which if a first situation of (a) the first WAM circuit entering an uncertainty state in which the first WAM circuit generates a random value of 1 or 0 at the first input of the logic cone, (b) the logic cone being vulnerable to a positive glitch, and (c) the output of the logic cone being at logic 0, the WAGG circuit generates a random value of 0 or 1 at input of the destination latch.

A method and system for testing a circuit design. The method including generating a simulation model of the circuit design, the circuit design comprising one or more source latches, one or more destination latches and a logic function connected between the source latches and the destination latches; generating a modified simulation model of the simulation model by inserting random skew between an output of each source latch and an input of the logic function only in asynchronous data paths between the source latches and the destination latches of the simulation model; and running the modified simulation model.
摘要:
Thread entries are stored in a memory of the system to indicate executed instruction threads. Uses of processing resources by the respective instruction threads are detected and history entries for the threads are stored in a memory of the system. Such history entries indicate whether respective processing resources have been used by respective ones of the instruction threads. The history entries of first and second ones of the instruction threads are compared. The second instruction thread is selected for executing if the comparing indicates history of processing resources used by the first thread has a certain difference relative to history of processing resources used by the second thread.
