Simvision Insights

What is Simvision?

Simvision is a unified debug environment from Synopsys used primarily for debugging hardware designs, particularly those described in HDL languages like Verilog, VHDL, and SystemVerilog. It allows engineers to visualize and analyze simulation waveforms, track down bugs, and optimize designs. It supports various simulation engines and provides features for analyzing code coverage, performance, and power consumption.
