Accellera Systems Initiative is an independent, not-for profit organization dedicated to create, support, promote, and advance system-level design, modeling, and verification standards for use by the worldwide electronics industry. We are composed of a broad range of members that fully support the work of our technical committee to develop technology standards that are balanced, open, and benefit the worldwide electronics industry. Leading companies and semiconductor manufacturers around the world are using our electronic design automation (EDA) and intellectual property (IP) standards in a wide range of projects in numerous application areas to develop consumer, mobile, wireless, automotive, and other “smart” electronic devices. Through an ongoing partnership with the IEEE, standards and technical implementations developed by Accellera Systems Initiative are contributed to the IEEE for formal standardization and ongoing governance.

This paper introduces an innovative 4-State logic ('0', '1', 'X', 'Z') emulation technology and how we applied it to real mobile-AP SOC for power-aware verification for the first time in the emulation based verification world including requirements for successful adoption. And the results of the experiment compared with traditional simulation based verification. Also we share the experimental data about how much additional resources are needed for 4-State logic emulation compared with 2-State logic emulation.
