Co-emulation

Concept

**Co-emulation** is a hardware-verification approach enabled by hybrid CPU/FPGA architectures and SoC-FPGAs in which the **design under test** is mapped onto an FPGA, while the **testbench** continues to execute on an HDL simulator.[^333] It is used in the context of verification acceleration, particularly where RTL simulation alone is limited by testbench performance.
