AMBA APB 5,4,3,2 Verification IP

Overview

The AMBA APB Verification IP provides an effective & efficient way to verify the components interfacing with the AMBA® APB bus of an IP or SoC. The AMBA APB VIP is fully compliant with standard AMBA® 2APB, AMBA® 3 APB v1.0, AMBA 3 APB v.2.0 (aka APB4), and AMBA APB5 specification from ARM. This VIP is a lightweight VIP with an easy plug-and-play interface so that there is no hit on the design cycle time.
