ABSTRACT:
A method for functional verification of hardware design. First, a first memory region storing a test pattern and a second memory region storing interrupt instructions are provided. Then, the test pattern stored in the first memory is hardware-simulated. If an external interrupt is received during the simulation of the test pattern, the second memory region is accessed and the interrupt instructions are hardware-simulated. Thereafter, the simulated result of the interrupt instructions is self-tested to obtain a first verification result, and the hardware design is verified according to the first verification result.
