    摘要: In at least one hardware definition language (HDL) file, at least one design entity containing a functional portion of a digital system is specified. The design entity logically contains first and second latches each having a respective plurality of different possible latch values. With one or more statements, a first Dial instance is associated with the first latch and a second Dial instance is associated with the second latch. A setting of the first Dial instance thus controls which of the plurality of different possible values is loaded in the first latch, and a setting of the second Dial instance controls which of the plurality of different possible values is loaded in the second latch. With a statement, a Register instance is concurrently associated with both the first and the second latches, such that a setting of the Register instance controls the latch values loaded in both the first and second latches.

    摘要: Mechanisms for accurately modeling an asynchronous interface using expanded logic elements are provided. With these mechanisms, the logic of an asynchronous interface is reduced to primitive logic elements. These primitive logic elements are expanded by the mechanisms of the present invention to take into consideration whether or not the primitive logic elements themselves may be experiencing a switching or glitch hazard and whether or not the inputs to the primitive logic elements may be based on a switching or glitch hazard from another primitive logic element in the asynchronous interface logic. These expanded logic elements are used in an integrated circuit design to replace the original primitive logic elements in the design. The asynchronous interface may then be simulated with the expanded logic elements providing outputs indicative of whether the actual data output of the expanded logic elements is deterministic or not.

    摘要: An integrated circuit including a vertical transistor and method of manufacturing. In one embodiment a vertical transistor is formed in a pillar of a semiconductor substrate. A buried conductive line is separated from the semiconductor substrate by a first insulating layer in a first portion and is electrically coupled to a buried source/drain region of the vertical transistor through a contact structure. A second insulating layer is arranged above and adjacent to the contact structure. At least one of the first and second insulating layers includes a dopant. A doped region is formed in the semiconductor substrate at an interface to the at least one insulating layer. The doped region has a dopant concentration higher than a substrate dopant concentration.

    摘要: Within a display device, a respective one of a plurality of design graphical representations is displayed for each of a plurality of hierarchically arranged design entity instances within a simulated system. The design entity instances include a particular design entity instance containing a latch that is represented by a particular design graphical representation. A configuration entity instance associated with the particular design entity is identified within a configuration database associated with the simulated system. The configuration entity instance has a plurality of different settings that each reflects a value of the latch. Within the display device, a configuration graphical representation of the configuration entity instance is presented in association with the particular design graphical representation corresponding to the particular design entity instance. In addition, a current setting of the configuration entity instance is presented concurrently with the configuration graphical representation.

    摘要: In a method of data processing, a database defines a Dial entity and at least one instance of the Dial entity. Each instance of the Dial entity has an input having a plurality of different possible input values and one or more outputs, and each of the plurality of different possible input values has a different associated output value set for the one or more outputs. Each instance of the Dial entity determines a value of at least one of a plurality of configuration latches in a digital system separate from the database. The database also associates with the Dial entity at least one set of biasing weights that, when applied, determines a probability of each instance of the Dial entity having particular ones of the plurality of different possible input values. In response to a call to set the plurality of configuration latches, the database is accessed to apply the at least one set of biasing weights to select one of the plurality of different possible input values for the at least one instance of the Dial entity. The plurality of configuration latches in the digital system are set based upon the output value set for the one or more outputs of the at least one instance of the Dial entity.

    摘要: In at least one hardware definition language (HDL) file, at least one design entity containing a functional portion of a digital system is specified. The design entity logically contains a latch having a respective plurality of different possible latch values. With one or more statements in one or more files, a configuration entity is associated with the latch. The configuration entity has a plurality of different settings and each setting reflects which of the plurality of different possible values is loaded in the associated latch. A controlling value set for at least one instance of the configuration entity is also defined in one or more files. The controlling value set indicates at least one controlling value for which presentation of a current setting of the configuration entity instance is restricted. Thereafter, in response to a request to present at least a partial state of the digital system, a current setting of the configuration entity instance is excluded from presentation by reference to a configuration database indicating the controlling value set.

    摘要: A system and computer program product for providing centralized access to count event information from testing of a hardware simulation model within a batch simulation farm which includes simulation clients and an instrumentation server. Count event data for said hardware simulation model is received by the instrumentation server from one or more simulation clients. A first and a second counter report are generated for the hardware simulation model, in which the first and second counter reports are derived from the count event data received by the instrumentation server. The first counter report is compared to the second counter report, and responsive to this comparison, a counter difference report is generated within the instrumentation server that conveys count event trends associated with the simulation model under different simulation testcases.

    摘要: One or more hardware description language (HDL) files describe a plurality of hierarchically arranged design entities defining a digital design to be simulated and a plurality of configuration entities not belonging to the digital design that logically control settings of a plurality of configuration latches in the digital design. The HDL file(s) are compiled to obtain a simulation executable model of the digital design and an associated configuration database. The compiling includes parsing a configuration statement that specifies an association between an instance of a configuration entity and a specified configuration latch, determining whether or not the specified configuration latch is described in the HDL file(s), and if not, creating an indication in the configuration database that the instance of the configuration latch had a specified association to a configuration latch to which it failed to bind.
