  • Abstract
    The PowerPC 603 microprocessor is a powerful low-cost implementation of the PowerPC architecture specification. The structured design, logic verification and test data generation methodologies of the 603 are presented in this paper. The success of these methodologies has been demonstrated by meeting the 603´s aggressive time-to-market goals
