  1. The original repository is located on my own git-server at [https://git.goodcleanfun.de/tmeissner/formal_hw_verification](https://git.goodcleanfun.de/tmeissner/formal_hw_verification)
  2. It is mirrored to github with every push, so both should be in sync.
  3. # formal_hw_verification
  4. Tests and examples of using formal verification to check correctness of digital hardware designs. All tests are done with SymbiYosys, a front-end for formal verification flows based on [Yosys](https://github.com/YosysHQ). Some examples use the VHDL/SystemVerilog frontend plugin by Verific which isn't free SW and not included in the free Yosys version. See on the [Symbiotic EDA website](https://www.symbioticeda.com) for more information.
  5. There is a branch named [ghdl-synth](https://github.com/tmeissner/formal_hw_verification/tree/ghdl-synth) which uses [ghdlsynth-beta](https://github.com/tgingold/ghdlsynth-beta) as VHDL frontend plugin for SymbiYosys. Furthermore using GHDL(synth) as synthesis frontend allows using PSL as verification language. Only the vai_reg design can be verified in this branch at the moment.
  6. ### alu
  7. A simple ALU design in VHDL. The formal checks contain various simple properties used by assert & cover directives which are proved with the SymbiYosys tool.
  8. ### counter
  9. A simple counter design in VHDL. The testbench contains various simple properties used by assert & cover directives which are proved with the SymbiYosys tool.
  10. ### dlatch
  11. A simple test design which generates the `Unsupported cell type $dlatchsr` error using with Verific plugin.
  12. ### vai_reg
  13. A simple register file with VAI (valid-accept-interface) which serves as test design to try formal verification of FSMs.
