Questa® Core/Visualizer: Advanced Topics teaches you to capitalize on the extensive capabilities of Questa Core to effectively and efficiently simulate digital HDL designs. Also, analyze and debug the simulation results using Visualizer Debug Environment. Using various Questa Core/Visualizer features and techniques, you will learn how to produce higher-performance test benches, more reliable device-under-test models, and greater confidence in simulation thoroughness and completeness.
PREREQUISITES
Prerequisites
- The student should have VHDL or Verilog knowledge prior to attending this course
