Sequential Equivalence Checking of Circuits with Different State Encodings by Pruning Simulation-based Multi-Node Invariants

Verification is an important step for Integrated Circuit (IC) design. In fact, literature has reported that up to 70% of the design effort is spent on checking if the design is functionally correct. One of the core verification tasks is Equivalence Checking (EC), which attempts to check if two struc...
