C++/SystemC/RTL Formal

SLEC System

Formally verify the correctness of hand-written RTL vs High-Level models using Sequential Logic Equivalence Checking. Even with differences in language, timing, and interfaces, SLEC-System verifies manual RTL with Catapult Formal proving C++ vs Catapult generated RTL.

KEY FEATURES

Formal Verification of C++/SystemC/RTL

When designers move high-level design descriptions into RTL, or make power optimizations to RTL, they need to know if the result is functionally equivalent to the original, possibly high-level description. SLEC delivers solutions for manual, HLS, and power optimization RTL verification.

Formal Equivalency Checking

Paired with a range of best-in-class engines, this powerful verification approach enables bug hunting, bounded-check, and full-proof strategies. SLEC is designed to complement typical simulation-based verification, and it is integrated with debug tools like Siemens EDA Visualizer for understanding falsifications.

Manual Formal Equivalence Checking

For the toughest manual formal verification challenges involving complex implementations in hand-coded RTL. SLEC-System delivers capabilities enabling formal proof of design blocks as challenging as double precision floating point multiplication, mult-add and other problems that simply cannot be exhaustively simulated in RTL.
