DVT OVERVIEW
The Design and Verification Tools (DVT) platform is a powerful and
modern, yet easy to use programming environment for the e language, SystemVerilog and VHDL. It enables
faster and smarter code development and simplifies legacy code
maintenance for novices and experts alike.
Being created on the integrated development environment (IDE)
concept, DVT is similar to well-known programming tools like Visual
Studio and IntelliJ. An intuitive graphical user interface (GUI)
integrates a smart code editor with a parser that runs in the
background and a complete suite of tools for code navigation and
debugging.
In addition, the DVT IDE includes several domain-specific capabilities for design and verification,
such as structural browsing of design entities, verification
methodology support, and an innovative linting framework.
FEATURES
- Built on the Eclipse platform for easy integration within a large plug-in ecosystem.
- Includes an IEEE standard compliant parser (IEEE 1800 SystemVerilog, IEEE 1647 e Language, and IEEE 1076 VHDL).
- Integrates with all major simulators to enable simplified
simulation analysis.
- Works with revision control systems like CVS, Git, Subversion,
ClearCase and bug tracking systems such as Bugzilla.
- Incorporates advanced editing features such as: syntax and
semantic checks as you type, autocomplete, in-line reminders,
code templates, macro expansion, code formatting, and
refactoring for efficient code writting.
- Provides code and project navigation capabilities like
hyperlinks, semantic search, class and structural browsing,
and UML diagrams to simplify the maintenance of tens of
thousands of code lines.
- Includes support for the Universal Verification Methodology
(UVM), Open Verification Methodology (OVM), and Verification
Methodology Manual (VMM) and UVM/OVM compliance checking
capabilities.
- Enables automated documentation extraction.
