 Functional verification

Functional verification is a process in the development of hardware and software systems, particularly in electronic design automation (EDA) and integrated circuit (IC) design, where the primary goal is to ensure that a design behaves according to its specifications. It involves rigorous testing and validation to confirm that the implemented design correctly performs its intended functions. ### Key Aspects of Functional Verification: 1. **Specification Verification**: Functional verification checks whether the design meets the requirements outlined in the specifications.
