What is Simulation? How Simulation Can Guide Real Engineering Design Decisions

Hello Dear Readers, Today in this post I will provide some deep insight into the simulation. So let's start. Simulation: Before software tools were developed, the verification of a particular circuit design could only be achieved by the construction of a prototype circuit. While the designer could use standard digital and analog techniques to design the circuit on paper. it was almost impossible to determine whether the circuit would perform as expected in practice. These 'bread boarded' prototype circuits were constructed using discrete components such as individual logic gates, transistors, resistors, capacitors, etc. When built, the circuit would be thoroughly tested and design modifications made on the basis of these tests. The next version of the prototype was then constructed and the process repeated. Such an approach technique was very time-consuming and expensive and resulted in a very long development time. Translation from breadboard to chip often resulted in

CPU Verification Engineer at NVIDIA Bangalore

Hello Dear Readers, Currently at Nvidia Bangalore vacancy for a CPU Verification Engineer role. What you’ll be doing: Work on NVIDIA's next generation CPU. Verify micro-architecture/architecture features at unit level or subsystem or full chip testbenches including FPGA/Silicon. Work along with CPU architects in creating verifiable designs. What we need to see: Experience with full stack development - from verifying sequences at SW simulator level, to getting the overall end-to-end sequence working on silicon with a full SW stack. Strong verification fundamentals and able to juggle working on full chip testbenches and on FPGA/Silicon. Proficient in CPU architecture (ARM knowledge is desirable), Verilog, SystemVerilog and possess strong debugging skills. Bachelors/Masters or equivalent experience in Computer Science or electrical engineering from a reputed engineering college and 3+ years of industry experience. Ways to stand out from the crowd: Experience on CPU unit/microarchit

Best Book for Designing Microarchitecture of Microprocessor Using Verilog HDL

Hello Dear Readers, Currently, after succeeding in many topics now I starting to provide technical book reviews which were I have completed and still read books always. So let us start today's book review. Book Name: Computer Principles and Design in Verilog HDL Description: Uses Verilog HDL to illustrate computer architecture and microprocessor design, allowing readers to readily simulate and adjust the operation of each design, and thus build industrially relevant skills Introduces the computer principles, computer design, and how to use Verilog HDL (Hardware Description Language) to implement the design Provides the skills for designing processor/arithmetic/cpu chips, including the unique application of Verilog HDL material for CPU (central processing unit) implementation Despite the many books on Verilog and computer architecture and microprocessor design, few, if any, use Verilog as a key tool in helping a student to understand these design techniques A companion website
