VLSI Glossary
- RTL– Register Transfer LevelDesign
Abstraction describing the flow of data between registers and the logic between them.
- UVM– Universal Verification MethodologyDV
SystemVerilog class library standardising reusable testbench architecture.
- STA– Static Timing AnalysisTiming
Vector-less analysis of timing paths across PVT corners.
- DFT– Design for TestTest
Adding scan, BIST and ATPG hooks so silicon can be tested post-fab.
- CTS– Clock Tree SynthesisPD
Buffering and balancing clock distribution to minimise skew.
- OCV– On-Chip VariationTiming
Modeling derates that account for systematic/random process variation.
- UPF– Unified Power FormatLow Power
Side-file describing power intent – domains, isolation, retention.
- AMBA– ARM AMBABus
Standard on-chip bus family – AHB, APB, AXI.
- GDSIIFab
Binary stream format for chip layout – the file that goes to the foundry.
- ECO– Engineering Change OrderPD
Post-route incremental fixes – metal or full ECO.
- MBIST– Memory BISTTest
Built-in self-test logic that exercises on-chip memories.
- PSS– Portable Stimulus StandardDV
Accellera spec for portable, intent-level test scenarios.
