Axiom Adds UVM Support to MPSim

Nov. 16, 2011 - PRLog -- Milpitas, California, November 16, 2011 --Axiom Design Automation, provider of fastest path to verification closure for semiconductor design today announced that it has added industry standard UVM support to its industry proven MPSim SystemVerilog simulator. UVM, the follow on to the OVM Verification methodology, is an industry standard methodology for verification of complex SOC and Multi-Core networking and low power processor designs.

“After enabling several successful tapeouts for customers using our simulator with native OVM technology support, we have continued to enhance our SystemVerilog capability”, stated Tarak Parikh, Vice President of Products at Axiom Design Automation. “Axiom’s UVM implementation supports UVM libraries and methodologies without requiring any changes to the libraries. UVM clearly provides a huge verification productivity boost to our customers. However, our experience with our beta UVM customers highlighted the complexities involved in debugging testbenches created with UVM and we responded accordingly. Axiom today provides the best in class debug technology for integrated verification debugging and our customers testify to its unique debug capabilities in the areas of design and testbench as one of the key reasons for their ability to verify their designs on time. Our growing list of successful customers validates our strategic focus on continued innovation in the product taking advantage of the latest hardware and software technologies”.

MPSim is a complete Verilog/SystemVerilog verification platform with full support for SystemVerilog, OVM, VMM, and UVM.  It includes an advanced debugger in a single architecture resulting in high performance and throughput.
