He has made significant contributions to the field of technology, particularly in the area of data transmission and verification systems. With a total of 16 patents to his name, Edwards has established himself as a key figure in innovation.
Latest Patents
Among his latest patents is a method and implementation of cyclic redundancy check for wide databus. This invention provides a method for computing a X-bit cyclical redundancy check (CRC-X) frame value for a data frame transmitted over a N-bit databus. The method includes receiving a N-bit data input with an end-of-frame for the data frame at bit position M on the N-bit databus. It performs a bitwise XOR on X most significant bits of the N-bit data input with a CRC-X feedback value to form a first N-bit intermediate data. Additionally, the method involves shifting the first N-bit intermediate data by M bit positions to align the end-of-frame of the data frame with a least significant bit (LSB), and padding M number of zero bits to a most significant bit (MSB) of the first N-bit intermediate data to form a second N-bit intermediate data.
Another notable patent is a one-pass method for implementing a flexible testbench. This invention describes a test environment for performing verification on a parameterizable circuit design. It includes a test harness specifying a first instance of a device under test characterized by a first parameterization and at least a second instance of the device under test characterized by at least a second parameterization. The test environment further includes a hardware verification language shell configured to randomly generate signals which indicate one of the instances and provide the signals to the test harness. The test harness selects one of the instances according to the signals.
