Conformal Equivalence Checker

Key Benefits

Exhaustively verifies multi-million–gate ASICs several times faster than traditional gate-level simulation
Decreases the risk of missing critical bugs with independent verification technology
Enables faster, more accurate bug detection and correction throughout the entire design flow
Extends equivalence checking capability to complex datapaths and closes the RTL-to-layout verification gap (XL configuration)
Ensures RTL models perform the same functions as the corresponding transistor circuits implemented on silicon (GXL configuration)

Cadence^® Conformal^® Equivalence Checker (EC) makes it possible to verify and debug multi-million–gate designs without using test vectors. It offers the industry’s only complete equivalence checking solution for verifying SoC designs—from RTL to final LVS netlist (SPICE). Cadence Conformal EC enables designers to verify the widest variety of circuits, including complex arithmetic logic, datapaths, memories, and custom logic.

Already proven in thousands of tapeouts, Conformal EC is the industry’s most widely supported independent equivalence checking product. It is production-proven on more physical design closure products, advanced synthesis software, ASIC libraries, and IP cores than any other formal verification technology.
