Creating cross-coveraghe within vr_ad

archive
archive over 17 years ago

Hi,
does anyone knows a quick method to create a cross coverage between 2 fields belonging to different registers; i.e. I have

reg XX which contains field a

reg YY which contains field b

I would like to create a cross-coverage item (either in reg X or in YY) between fields a and b

Thanks
Maurizio

    Hi Maurizio,

    Normally what I would do is grab the field value from its enclosing reference model by method or by pointing to it.
    This way I can cross reg values with other reg values or with any info I need in the data path. The advantage here is that the sampling event is already taken care of.
    I believe you could also extend the reg_file struct and define the cross items there, but then you'll have to take care of the sampling event, and make sure coverage is only recorded when relevant.

    I hope that helps...
