PSS 3.0 In Review<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Portable Test & Stimulus (PSS) Draft Standard 3.0 is in public review since early May 2024.  The public review closes on July 5th<\/sup>, so attendees will have an opportunity to provide feedback and comments in person.  For those who will not be attending DAC, feedback, and comments via Accellera\u2019s online PSS Community Forum is encouraged.  The PSS 3.0 draft standard adds many new features, corrects errors, clarifies aspect of the language and semantic definition and more.  The most substantial feature added is support for behavioral coverage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Download PSS 3.0 Draft<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There is no cost to download the draft standard and participate in the public review.  Your first step is to download the PSS 3.0 draft standard<\/a><\/strong>.  As you review it, you can register your feedback, comments or ask question of the experts via Accellera\u2019s PSS Community Forum<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additional Resources<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The DVCon U.S. 2024 PSS tutorial is not yet available for post conference access where the newer changes and added features are described.  However, the DVCon U.S. 2023 tutorial on PSS User Experiences<\/a><\/em><\/strong> is available.  The 2023 tutorial begins with an overview and features users from AMD and Intel who share their experiences using this new technology.  If you have limited knowledge of PSS, this tutorial would be a great thing to watch to build your expertise and help prepare you to engage in the lunchtime conversation at DAC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
