Sufficiency-based Filtering of Invariants for Sequential Equivalence Checking

Verification, as opposed to Testing and Post-Silicon Validation, is a critical step for Integrated Circuits (IC) Design, answering the question â Are we designing the right function?â before the chips are manufactured. One of the core areas of Verification is Equivalence Checking (EC), which is a...
