Power Aware Design and Verification Flow

Elements of Low Power Verification Methodology

Some elements required by almost all designs are:

• Use of voltage aware booleans for logic behavior
• Use of voltage aware models for mixed signals components
• Testing of reset and retention functions
• Power aware assertions
• Power management coverage
• Random asynchronous stimulus generation to exercise the concurrent power management events
• Adoption of firmware validation approach to exercise true in-system functionality of the device
