An assertion is used to validate the behavior of the design. If the property that is being checked for in a simulation does not behave as per specification, then the assertion fails. Similarly if a property or rule is forbidden...

2 min read

Now a days we use to deal with modules of Verilog or VHDL or combination of both. Mostly verification engineers are not allowed to modified these modules. But still SVA addition to these modules is required and easy to verify lot...
