Hardware Verification

Hardware Verification Services (DO-254)

In the world of safety-critical airborne electronic hardware, verification is the bridge between a design and its airworthiness. At Indimax, we provide end-to-end verification services for Simple and Complex Electronic Hardware (CEH) including FPGAs, PLDs, and ASICs.

we ensure your hardware meets the most stringent requirements for Design Assurance Levels (DAL) A through D.


Our Verification Framework

We follow a structured lifecycle to ensure your hardware is “Correct by Design.” Our process moves beyond basic functional testing to satisfy the rigorous “Independence” requirements of DO-254.

Comprehensive Service Offerings

  • Verification Plan Development (PHVP): Crafting the Plan for Hardware Verification to define strategies, tools, and pass/fail criteria.
  • Requirements-Based Verification: Mapping every hardware requirement to a specific test case to ensure 100% traceability.
  • RTL Simulation & Functional Verification: Advanced testbench development (UVM/OVM) to verify HDL code against requirements.
  • Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) Testing: Testing the actual programmed device in its target environment to verify real-time performance and timing.
  • Elemental Analysis & Code Coverage: Detailed analysis to ensure no “dead code” exists and that every logic gate is exercised.
  • Post-Layout & Timing Analysis: Ensuring that the physical implementation meets all setup/hold requirements under worst-case conditions.
