Together, they build a product in which the parts are literally made for each other. That's the coverification concept. Hardware-software coverification topples the walls that separate project teams and frees the full power of concurrent design. It results in better, higher quality products and faster time to market. And logic emulation makes it all possible.
Emulation is inevitable.
Emulation isn't just desirable. That's because emulation provides the only way to master the increasing complexity of electronic products. Driven by deep submicron technology and top-down design techniques, IC complexity has skyrocketed in recent years. Today it's not unusual to pack hundreds of thousands or millions of logic gates on a single chip. Emulation provides predictable High-Performance no matter how complicated the design.
