Given the widespread usage of UVM across the globe, many first-timers to UVM find it hard to remember all relevant options to their favorite simulator to get going with UVM. Our Go2UVM approach is addressing this very issue via a generic Makefile. Given most of the VLSI engineers are familiar with the Makefile use model, we provide a free-to-use (even for commercial deployment) Makefile here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

G2U_Makefile<\/a>Download<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

So how does this work?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Create a text file named \u201cflist<\/strong>\u201d that contains names (and paths as necessary) of all the design and Testbench files.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Choose your favorite simulator \u2013 Synopsys, Cadence, Mentor, or Aldec \u2013 we support all of them in a single Makefile.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. On a terminal type: make cvc2_gui<\/strong> <\/em>TOP=my_chip_uvm_tb_top TEST=my_uvm_test<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    That\u2019s it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Here are different EDA tools supported along with our Makefile target names:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
