RTL HandOff - what includes?

[ivlsi]

Hi All,

What's the Handoff for RTL delivery to Verification and BackEnd groups?

As I know, it's as follows:
1) level-0 verification by direct testing (TestBench)
2) Running Lint on RTL
3) Running SpyGlass on RTL (CDC checks)
4) providing constraint files for the synthesis

What's else?

Thank you!

any of these could be true or not depending on company policy.

Are there any additional checkpoints for the RTL delivery?

file naming standards, file locations, IP views and necessary switches, simulation flags vs. synthesis flags
