UVM SystemVerilog Basics in 24 short videos

[Adam Sherilog]

All,

Axel Scherer manages a team of UVM experts and has recorded their collected experience in a series of 24 UVM SystemVerilog basics videos. Each video is between 2 and 5 minutes making them easy to view when you have some free time, and easy to review when you're looking for a refresher.

The videos are open to all viewers with no registration required. Just a little Cadence EDA360 to help the UVM community.

Thanks for Adam's sharing, these videos could help UVM beginner a lot. I am really appreciated your efforts and hope Cadence (or other organization) could continue working on the other topics (list a few below) to complete the tutorial for current UVM-1.1a.

1. register package (uvm_reg, mem, mem_mam)

2. message (report_object, server, catcher)

3. other features such as CLI, event_pool, callback, heartbeat or sequence_library...

Hi Sean,

This was meant as a start.

We are considering to cover additional topics.

Thanks for the input!

Just when you thought 24 videos about UVM were enough, we added more! This video walks you through the UVM Class Library pointing out key aspects that are important to all UVM developers.

It's your coffee break, so grab a fresh cup and enjoy!

And just when you thought all of the above goodness was too good to be true, we have even more! UVM has been growing by leaps and bounds in China so we translated the video shorts into Chinese! Do to some restrictions in China, we have made the videos available on two sites:

Link to YouTube Playlist (Chinese)

Link to YouKu Playlist (Chinese)

We would also like to introduce our third twin :-), Yi-Shiun Lin who did the work to translate these videos. Thank you!

All of the videos at that link are open to the public and most of them are tutorials in the spirit of the original set.
