SAMPLE PROJECTS
This project introduces a streamlined verification process for FPGA development, focusing on a multi-core system. Each core, with its unique code, is linked to a shared repository of verification IPs. A standout feature of our approach is the ability to select specific tests and branches from the common repo for each pipeline, seamlessly fitting into the verification flow. This system also includes regression tests and code checks, similar to our other projects, with the flexibility of choosing tests for each regression to suit varied project requirements. This methodology ensures a unified, efficient workflow while maintaining high standards of code quality and verification across different FPGA development scenarios.
In this project, we've crafted advanced Continuous Integration (CI) pipelines specifically for FPGA development. These pipelines automate RTL project builds, covering synthesis, implementation, and bitstream generation. Key features include enforcing code standards through format and style checks, ensuring file currency, and verifying RTL compilation and simulation integrated with regression tests. A unique aspect is the flexibility to select specific tests for each regression run, catering to different pipeline needs. The system also generates detailed reports on bugs and results. Nightly pipelines further enhance this by running all tests, allowing the verification team to continuously monitor project progress, thereby boosting efficiency and maintaining quality in FPGA development.
This project focuses on developing a Python-based automation tool designed to streamline regression testing and report generation in FPGA development. A significant addition to our suite of tools, this Python tool automates the execution of regression tests, enhancing the efficiency of the verification process. It integrates TCL packages to support cross-platform development, ensuring compatibility across various EDA tools. The tool is equipped with scripts that automate specific tasks within the EDA flow, further simplifying the development process. This automation tool is particularly adept at handling diverse test scenarios, customizing test runs based on specific project needs, and generating comprehensive reports. These features make it an invaluable asset in maintaining high standards of code quality and efficiency in FPGA development, complementing our existing CI pipelines and unified multi-core system verification approach.
