Superseded Standard

IEEE/IEC 62531-2007

IEC/IEEE International Standard for Property Specification Language (PSL)

(IEC 62531 Ed. 1 (2007-11) (IEEE Std 1850-2005). The IEEE Property Specification Language (PSL) is defined in this standard. PSL is a formal notation for specification of electronic system behavior, compatible with multiple electronic system design languages, including IEEE Std 1076 (VHDL®), IEEE Std 1364 (Verilog®), IEEE P1666 (SystemC®), and IEEE P1800 (SystemVerilog®), thereby enabling a common specification and verification flow for multi-language and mixed-language designs. PSL captures design intent in a form suitable for simulation, formal verification, formal analysis, and hybrid verification tools. PSL enhances communication among architects, designers, and verification engineers to increase productivity throughout the design and verification process. The primary audiences for this standard are the implementors of tools supporting the language and advanced users of the language.

62531-2012

IEC 62531:2012(E) (IEEE Std 1850-2010): Standard for Property Specification Language (PSL)

The IEEE Property Specification Language (PSL) is defined. PSL is a formal notation for specification of electronic system behavior, compatible with multiple electronic system design languages, including IEEE Std 1076 (VHDLu00ae), IEEE Std 1354 (Verilogu00ae), IEEE Std 1666 (SystemCu00ae), and IEEE Std 1800 (SystemVerilogu00ae), thereby enabling a common specification and verification flow for multi-language and mixed-language designs. PSL captures design intent in a form suitable for simulation, formal verification, formal analysis, and hybrid verification tools. PSL enhances communication among architects, designers, and verification engineers to increase productivity throughout the design and verification process. The primary audiences for this standard are the implementors of tools supporting the language and advanced users of the language

These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.


No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards

These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.


1850-2010

IEEE Standard for Property Specification Language (PSL)

The IEEE Property Specification Language (PSL) is defined in this standard. PSL is a formal notation for specification of electronic system behavior, compatible with multiple electronic system design languages, including IEEE Std 1076 (VHDLu00ae), IEEE Std 1354 (Verilogu00ae), IEEE Std 1666 (SystemCu00ae), and IEEE Std 1800(TM) (SystemVerilog(R)), thereby enabling a common specification and verification flow for multi-language and mixed-language designs. PSL captures design intent in a form suitable for simulation, formal verification, formal analysis, and hybrid verification tools. PSL enhances communication among architects, designers, and verification engineers to increase productivity throughout the design and verification process.
