Operational Impact
The implementation of the assertion-based verification methodology had immediate positive effects for UPEK. The design team was able to quickly adapt to the new methodology, largely due to the automation features provided by Cadence's solutions. This new verification environment allowed the team to achieve their overall design quality goals more quickly and work with greater confidence. The early success experienced by the UPEK design team through the addition of formal verification to its design process resulted in time savings and improved quality on the first design. | |
Quantitative Benefit
Sped up the design cycle by addressing key verification issues upfront in the design | |
