Ashling Verification IP

Ashling Verification IP: The right design start!

Ashling is now offering Verification IP (VIP) to allow speeding up the verification process, reducing verification effort and costs, and improving the quality of digital ASIC, FPGA or SoC based designs.

Ashling’s solutions are designed to meet the needs of a wide range of customers, from small startups to large corporations and our team of experts are highly experienced in the field of design and verification and have a deep understanding of the challenges faced by designers in the development of complex digital systems.

Verification IP consists of pre-written and pre-verified components that can be used to verify the functional correctness of a digital design. These components provide a set of predefined functional, and protocol checks that can be integrated into a verification environment, allowing designers to verify their designs quickly and easily.

Verification IP helps to reduce the time and effort required to verify complex digital designs by providing pre-verified components that can be reused across different projects. This reduces the risk of verification errors and improves the quality of the final design. Verification IP can also provide a standardized interface to verify communication protocols, ensuring compatibility with other IP components and making it easier to integrate the design into a larger system.

All of the below VIP is available for Arm™, RISC-V, Synopsys ARC and other CPU cores
