Questa – FPGA and ASIC Simulation When ModelSim Is No Longer Enough

Questa Advanced Simulator is at the heart of Siemens’ verification solution: SystemVerilog, VHDL, and SystemC; multi-core simulation; and automated test benches. ModelSim users will feel right at home in this environment. It just offers even more power.

Features

What Questa Does

High-speed simulation engine

Translation and simulation optimizations are performed globally for SystemVerilog and VHDL. The same design runs significantly faster than on standard simulators.

Multi-core simulation

You can split the design into parallel runs automatically or manually. Debug and coverage data are still stored in a single database.

Automatic test benches

Complex stimuli are generated using SystemVerilog or SystemC Verification libraries, so they are not written by hand.

Artificial Intelligence in Verification

For ASIC, SoC, and FPGA projects, the Questa One family speeds up verification design, execution, and debugging.

In practice, yes. Commands and .do scripts work just as they did before, but performance, language support, and verification capabilities are more extensive. Even FPGA manufacturers now provide Questa-based versions instead of ModelSim.

Supports. It includes the UVM methodology, limited random generation, and functional coverage—the foundation of modern verification.

The price depends on the configuration (simulator, coverage, formal tools) and the number of licenses. Request a quote, and we’ll put together a package tailored to your needs.

Oh. We’ll set up a trial license, and you can use it to run your own test benches.
