What is verification?

Verification is a manner of making sure that a given hardware layout works as anticipated. Chip layout is a completely pricey and time-ingesting manner and price millions to fabricate. Functional defects in the layout if stuck at an early degree in the layout manner will assist keep costs. If a malicious program is discovered afterward its layout float then all the layout steps ought to be repeated once more that allows you to dissipate extra resources, cash and time. If the whole layout float must be repeated, then it is referred to as respin of the chip.

How it is used in verification?

A hardware layout on the whole includes numerous verilog(.v) documents with one pinnacle module, wherein all different sub-models are instantiated to attain the desired behaviour and functionally. An surroundings referred to as testbench is needed for the verification of a given verilog layout and is commonly written in systemverilog these days. The concept is to drive the layout with special stimuli to look at its output and examine it with anticipated values to see if the layout is behaving the manner it need to.

In order to do this, the pinnacle stage layout module is instantiated in the testbench environment, and design input/output ports are linked with the perfect testbench additives signals. The inputs to the layout are pushed with positive values for which we recognize how the layout should operate. The outputs are analysed and in comparison with the anticipated values to see if the design behaviour is correct.
