FPGA Verification Forum 2012
Seminar
There are currently no dates scheduled for this event.
Overview
Today’s FPGAs are where ASICs were 10 years ago. You can no longer meet schedules and deliver designs on time with a simple milestone of being “in the lab”. This event will take you on a journey to employ new techniques to get your projects out faster and with fewer problems. It is a like a train journey with various stops. You can choose to get off at the first stop or go all the way to the last stop. Either way, you will benefit and reach your ultimate goal.
What You Will Learn
- Why you need a Verification Process
- Three Steps to injecting Automation
- Reduce debug Time by 50%
- Understand where you are in the Verification Process
- Build an effective Testbench Infrastructure
- ModelSim GUI Essentials - with Demonstrations
- Performance Tuning: Tips & Tricks
About the Presenters
Joe Rodriguez
Joe Rodriguez is a FPGA Market Development for Design Verification Technology (DVT) division at Mentor Graphics. Prior to this role Joe spent 2 years as Technical Marketing Manager for the Emulation Division (MED) at Mentor Graphics. Joe was also the Technical Marketing Manager in DVT at Mentor Graphics for 12 years. A result of this Joe has been involved in the definition and creation of many aspects of the Mentor Graphics verification solutions. Solutions like power aware simulation, debug and performance flows, including US patents for simulation event reduction.
Prior to Mentor Graphics, Joe spent 5 years as a field application engineer for Quickturn Design Systems successfully deploying many large FGPA based emulation projects. Joe also spent 6 years at Logic Automation as a Modeling Engineer and Support Manager. Joe has 7 years experience as a diagnostic engineer at Floating Point System and holds a Bachelor of Science in electrical engineering.
Neil Rattray
Neil holds a Bachelor’s degree in Electronics Engineering from Queen Mary College, University of London, and has over 20 years experience in ASIC and FPGA design. He has worked a combined 8 years for several defense companies in the UK. From there he began his career in applications engineering for Actel and then Xilinx distributors, supporting customers across the UK and Ireland. He then worked for 7 years at Saros Technology supporting EDA products from several vendors, including Mentor. For the past 2 years Neil has worked for Mentor Graphics as an Application Engineer supporting a range of HDL and Functional Verification tools across Europe.
