  • Abstract
    Power management has fast become specialized in different spaces. There are different schools of thought and methodologies of verification, depending on whether youpsilare looking at server, desktop, mobile or ultra-mobile spaces. For pre-silicon verification, the challenges are unique, and numerous tools and methodologies are used to ensure that as many bugs are found pre-silicon. This paper outlines some of those methodologies used, and describes why this discipline now has a face of its own.
