Yogitech Claims First OCP Universal Verification
Component
SAN FRANCISCO — September 29, 2006 - Design and verification technology
provider Yogitech SPA is rolling out what it claims is the industry's first
mixed-language Open Core Protocol (OPC) universal verification component
(UVC).
Yogitech (Pisa, Italy) said its OCP UVC is the only commercial
verification solution to fully support revision 2.1 of the OCP protocol and
comply with the OCP 2.0/2.1 compliant checks document, including functional
coverage guidelines, released by the Open Core Protocol International
Partnership earlier this year.
The component supports e and SystemVerilog verification languages, the
company said.
The OPC UVC is proven by means of an advanced qualification process
addressing specific customers' profiles and with the same level of coverage
both for e and SystemVerilog, allowing the final user to switch between the
two languages at any time, Yogitech said.
The company claims OCP UVC is the only functional verification solution
that can be adopted into any verification environment based on the standard
languages endorsed by the IEEE, including SystemVerilog and e, and SystemC,
Verilog and VHDL design languages.
"The combination of the Yogitech OCP UVC and the Incisive verification
platform [from Cadence Design Systems Inc.] is a golden solution to allow
multi-language verification environments while maintaining the high level of
verification productivity, predictability, and quality already achieved in
the broadly deployed OCP eVC," said Silvano Motto, Yogitech CEO.
