Do you wish to learn about hardware verification?
Are you interested in learning how to program verification environment to verify the effectiveness of a chip?
Are you more concerned about the efficiency of the chip in the process of developing it?
Are you struggling to find a platform on the internet where you can learn under qualified and experienced instructors, that too, absolutely free?

Functional hardware verification is an important phase which should be carried out before manufacturing of the final product to ensure quality, efficiency and functionality of the same product. Functional testing of chips and other equipment are carried out to remove any doubt of an error in the chip. The guide will provide efficient and convenient ways you need to know before manufacturing a chip.

This guide is beneficial for students – who want to learn appropriate and effective ways to produce a chip and for advanced users – who know that it would not be possible to make alteration to the chips after the manufacturing process. For this course, you should have a prior object-oriented programming knowledge and practical of data structure. This guide will help you learn:

A basic introduction to Hardware Verification
Understanding stimulus modelling and generation
Interfacing to the Hardware Model
Monitoring and Functional Coverage
Checking
Aspect Oriented Programming
Reuse Methodology
Debugging
Conclusion and Exam
