DVT IDE (Design and Verification Tools Integrated Development Environment) is a commercial integrated development environment developed by AMIQ EDA. It functions as a plugin for both the Eclipse Platform and Visual Studio Code, designed for hardware design and verification engineers working with hardware description and verification languages such as SystemVerilog, Verilog, VHDL, and the e language.[1][2]
Features
editDVT IDE includes several features intended to support engineers in hardware design and verification tasks:
- On-the-fly incremental compilation: Utilizes an IEEE standard-compliant parser to perform real-time code compilation, highlighting errors as code is written without invoking a simulator.[1][2]
- Advanced code editing tools: Provides context-sensitive autocomplete, quick fixes, macro expansion, intelligent code formatting, refactoring operations, and customizable code templates.[1][2]
- Dedicated wizards: Includes tools to generate getters and setters, override functions, implement extern methods, and assist with the Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) factory registration.[1][2]
- Code navigation and visualization: Features hyperlinks for easy navigation, structural browsing, support for Unified Modeling Language (UML) and transaction-level modeling (TLM) diagrams, as well as schematic, trace, and state machine diagrams.[1][2]
- Debugging using semantic search and signal tracing: Allows users to perform semantic searches, find references, and trace signals throughout the code.[2]
- Cross-language support: Supports mixed-language projects, enabling work with SystemVerilog, Verilog, VHDL, and other languages and standards such as Unified Power Format (UPF), Common Power Format (CPF), Portable Stimulus Standard (PSS), and Specification Description Language (SDL).[1][2][3]
- Integration with other tools: Integrates with hardware simulators like Xcelium (Cadence Design Systems), Specman, VCS (Synopsys), and QuestaSim (Siemens EDA), as well as version control systems such as Concurrent Versions System (CVS), Git, Apache Subversion, and IBM Rational ClearCase.[2][4]
- Dedicated UVM support: Includes specialized features to support Universal Verification Methodology for implementing and managing UVM-based testbenches.[2]
Licensing
editDVT IDE is distributed under a commercial license provided by AMIQ EDA.[1][2] The licensing options include node-locked and floating licenses, available on a per-user basis, as well as bulk and academic licensing.[4]
History
editDVT IDE was initially developed by AMIQ Consulting in 2005 as an internal tool to assist verification engineers with code development and maintenance challenges associated with hardware design and verification languages.[4] In 2008, AMIQ EDA was established as a separate entity to focus on the development and commercialization of DVT IDE.[4][5]
Key developments in the evolution of DVT IDE include:
- 2011: Introduction of DVT Debugger, adding debugging capabilities to the integrated development environment.[5]
- 2012: Release of Verissimo SystemVerilog Linter, providing linting features to improve code quality.[5]
- 2014: Launch of Specador Documentation Generator to facilitate code documentation.[5]
- 2023: Addition of support for Visual Studio Code with the release of DVT IDE for VS Code.[2][5]
In 2021, AMIQ EDA joined the OpenHW Group, an organization focused on developing open-source RISC-V processor cores and related IP, tools, and software. AMIQ EDA's DVT Eclipse IDE and Verissimo SystemVerilog Linter were integrated into OpenHW Group's continuous integration flow to analyze SystemVerilog testbench code for the CORE-V processor family.[6]
