SDV is pleased to announce a free Verification IP resource for Verilog
--------------
We are pleased to announce that examples of transaction-based monitors
for the AMBA AHB bus are available on our web site www.sdvinc.com
for free download for internal use.
These fully functional 32-bit monitors have been generated from a
formal description of AHB using our TransactorWizard tool and can be
instantiated free of license fee for internal use. We hope these
examples will help to illustrate:
-- the value of Formal Protocol descriptions
-- the use of Transaction-based Verification
-- the importance of re-useable protocol monitors in a verification
environment
You can read an outline of our work on describing protocols using
PSL/Sugar expressions at:
www.sdvinc.com/PSL-Sugar_tutorial_pt5.pdf
The downloads are cycle-accurate monitors complete with simple
vector-based testbench, operating instructions and sample Functional
Protocol Coverage report. They support three simulation environments:
1) Verilog (this is a 100% Verilog monitor)
2) SystemC - includes transaction recording to a CSV file (the
complete example is written in SystemC and can be operated without a
simulation license)
3) SCV - includes transaction recording using the Cadence Incisive
platform, either with a SystemC or a Verilog top-level in the design
hierarchy)
Coming soon
--------------
We will shortly be releasing Monitors for other protocols including:
-- the AMBA 3.0 version of APB with PREADY signal
-- the new AXI protocol
Commercial IP
--------------
SDV offers 'ready-to-use' Master(Initiator), Slave(Target) & Monitor
IP as well as source code licenses, generation tools and services.
Support is available for other protocols such as PCI-X as well as
other simulation environments
More information is available on our web site, or by email from:
info@sdvinc.com
Feedback, bug-reporting and information
--------------
We welcome feedback on the accuracy of our formal protocol
descriptions and on any quality issue you may encounter with the
generated code, and will try to fix any issues that arise as quickly
as possible. To report issues, or if you have technical problems
downloading or installing these simulation examples please email:
