System Verilog Functional Coverage using NCSIM

ndalia

Hi,

 Are there any specific commands that are available for dumping functinoal coverage which would generate some report at the end of simulation? Currently I'm using Verdi to view the waveforms.

 Thanks

     Hi Nishit,

    To dump functional coverage of covergroups/coverpoints add "-coverage functional" to your elaboration command line.  The result will be a coverage database in a directory named cov_work.  You would then use iccr to analyze the results of the coverage.

    You can get more specific information on using iccr and coverage in general by reviewing the ICC User Guide within the IUS installation.

    Please feel free to email me (jrodrig@cadence.com) if you have any questions.

    Best regards,
    Mickey
