Functional coverage is fundamental to all modern processor verification plans; it marks the progress to project completion and release for prototype manufacture.
The release of the Imperas SystemVerilog functional coverage library with a permissive free-to-use license will now benefit all RISC-V verification teams and complements the work of the RISC-V International Architecture Tests SIG.

RISC-V is at the forefront of a hardware design renaissance in optimized processors.
But, an ISA only provides the envelope of possibilities. The art and science of processor optimization requires complete feature exploration and verification, which are supported by the reference model simulation and verification technology from Imperas.
