Verification module apparatus to serve as a prototype for functionally debugging an electronic design that exceeds the capacity of a single FPGA

摘要

A plurality of FPGAs and off-chip storage devices provide a verification module for functionally debugging electronic circuit designs. Signal value compression circuits embedded in each FPGA conserve the limited number of pins available on each FPGA. Transmitting addresses to signal values previously stored in off-chip storage further reduce the bottlenecks in analyzing logic functionality distributed across multiple FPGAs.
