Mentor OneSpin 2025 | Advanced Formal Verification & Hardware Security Platform

Mentor OneSpin 2025 is a comprehensive software suite for exhaustive formal verification, equivalence checking, and hardware security validation of semiconductor designs. It provides mathematical proof techniques to ensure functional correctness, identify security vulnerabilities, and guarantee design integrity beyond simulation-based testing.

Core Functionality Overview:

• Exhaustive Formal Property Verification (FPV): Enables the formal proof of complex design properties and assertions to achieve 100% coverage for critical logic, identifying corner-case bugs unreachable by simulation.

• Advanced Equivalence & Security Checking: Performs exhaustive RTL-to-RTL and RTL-to-netlist equivalence checking, alongside dedicated tools for detecting hardware Trojans, side-channels, and other security vulnerabilities.

• Assertion Synthesis & IP Trust Verification: Automatically generates assertions from simulation traces and provides solutions for verifying the integrity and trustworthiness of third-party IP cores.
