This book is both a tutorial and a reference for engineers who use the SystemVerilog Hardware Description Language (HDL) to design ASICs and FPGAs. The book shows how to write SystemVerilog models at the Register Transfer Level (RTL) that simulate and synthesize correctly, with a focus on proper coding styles and best practices. SystemVerilog is the latest generation of the original Verilog language, and adds many important capabilities to efficiently and more accurately model increasingly complex designs. This book reflects the SystemVerilog-2012/2017 standards. This book is for engineers who already know, or who are learning, digital design engineering. The book does not present digital design theory; it shows how to apply that theory to write RTL models that simulate and synthesize correctly. The creator of the original Verilog Language, Phil Moorby says about this book (an excerpt from the book's Foreword): "Many published textbooks on the design side of SystemVerilog assume that the reader is familiar with Verilog, and simply explain the new extensions. It is time to leave behind the stepping-stones and to teach a single consistent and concise language in a single book, and maybe not even refer to the old ways at all! If you are a designer of digital systems, or a verification engineer searching for bugs in these designs, then SystemVerilog will provide you with significant benefits, and this book is a great place to learn the design aspects of SystemVerilog."

SystemVerilog is a rich set of extensions to the IEEE 1364-2001 Verilog Hardware Description Language (Verilog HDL). These extensions address two major aspects of HDL based design. First, modeling very large designs with concise, accurate, and intuitive code. Second, writing high-level test programs to efficiently and effectively verify these large designs. This book, SystemVerilog for Design, addresses the first aspect of the SystemVerilog extensions to Verilog. Important modeling features are presented, such as two-state data types, enumerated types, user-defined types, structures, unions, and interfaces. Emphasis is placed on the proper usage of these enhancements for simulation and synthesis. A companion to this book, SystemVerilog for Verification, covers the second aspect of SystemVerilog.

This book introduces the reader to FPGA based design for RTL synthesis. It describes simple to complex RTL design scenarios using SystemVerilog. The book builds the story from basic fundamentals of FPGA based designs to advance RTL design and verification concepts using SystemVerilog. It provides practical information on the issues in the RTL design and verification and how to overcome these. It focuses on writing efficient RTL codes using SystemVerilog, covers design for the Xilinx FPGAs and also includes implementable code examples. The contents of this book cover improvement of design performance, assertion based verification, verification planning, and architecture and system testing using FPGAs. The book can be used for classroom teaching or as a supplement in lab work for undergraduate and graduate coursework as well as for professional development and training programs. It will also be of interest to researchers and professionals interested in the RTL design for FPGA and ASIC.

Based on the highly successful second edition, this extended edition of SystemVerilog for Verification: A Guide to Learning the Testbench Language Features teaches all verification features of the SystemVerilog language, providing hundreds of examples to clearly explain the concepts and basic fundamentals. It contains materials for both the full-time verification engineer and the student learning this valuable skill. In the third edition, authors Chris Spear and Greg Tumbush start with how to verify a design, and then use that context to demonstrate the language features, including the advantages and disadvantages of different styles, allowing readers to choose between alternatives. This textbook contains end-of-chapter exercises designed to enhance students’ understanding of the material. Other features of this revision include: New sections on static variables, print specifiers, and DPI from the 2009 IEEE language standard Descriptions of UVM features such as factories, the test registry, and the configuration database Expanded code samples and explanations Numerous samples that have been tested on the major SystemVerilog simulators SystemVerilog for Verification: A Guide to Learning the Testbench Language Features, Third Edition is suitable for use in a one-semester SystemVerilog course on SystemVerilog at the undergraduate or graduate level. Many of the improvements to this new edition were compiled through feedback provided from hundreds of readers.

This book will help engineers write better Verilog/SystemVerilog design and verification code as well as deliver digital designs to market more quickly. It shows over 100 common coding mistakes that can be made with the Verilog and SystemVerilog languages. Each example explains in detail the symptoms of the error, the languages rules that cover the error, and the correct coding style to avoid the error. The book helps digital design and verification engineers to recognize, and avoid, these common coding mistakes. Many of these errors are very subtle, and can potentially cost hours or days of lost engineering time trying to find and debug them.

The Verilog language provides a means to model a digital system at many levels of abstraction from a logic gate to a complex digital system to a mainframe computer. The purpose of this book is to present the Verilog language together with a wide variety of examples, so that the reader can gain a firm foundation in the design of the digital system using Verilog HDL. The Verilog projects include the design module, the test bench module, and the outputs obtained from the simulator that illustrate the complete functional operation of the design. Where applicable, a detailed review of the theory of the topic is presented together with the logic design principles—including: state diagrams, Karnaugh maps, equations, and the logic diagram. Numerous examples and homework problems are included throughout. The examples include logical operations, counters of different moduli, half adders, full adders, a carry lookahead adder, array multipliers, different types of Moore and Mealy machines, and arithmetic logic units (ALUs).

The IEEE 1364-2001 standard, nicknamed `Verilog-2001', is the first major update to the Verilog language since its inception in 1984. This book presents 45 significant enhancements contained in Verilog-2001 standard. A few of the new features described in this book are: ANSI C style port declarations for modules, primitives, tasks and functions; Automatic tasks and functions (re-entrant tasks and recursive functions); Multidimensional arrays of any data type, plus array bit and part selects; Signed arithmetic extensions, including signed data types and sign casting; Enhanced file I/O capabilities, such as $fscanf, $fread and much more; Enhanced deep submicron timing accuracy and glitch detection; Generate blocks for creating multiple instances of modules and procedures; Configurations for true source file management within the Verilog language. This book assumes that the reader is already familiar with using Verilog. It supplements other excellent books on how to use the Verilog language, such as The Verilog Hardware Description Language, by Donald Thomas and Philip Moorby (Kluwer Academic Publishers, ISBN: 0-7923-8166-1) and Verilog Quickstart: A Practical Guide to Simulation and Synthesis, by James Lee (Kluwer Academic Publishers, ISBN: 0-7923-8515-2).
