AMBA APB - Validates low-power, low-bandwidth peripheral communication in SoCs

Overview

The AMBA APB Verification IP ensures accurate communication and protocol compliance for low-power, low-bandwidth peripherals in SoC designs. It supports single-cycle read/write operations, making it ideal for simple peripherals like UARTs and GPIOs.

This VIP is essential for validating peripheral interfaces such as timers, displays, and sensor interfaces. It provides a seamless integration into simulation environments, accelerating debugging and ensuring robust performance across various peripheral types

Key Features

  • Protocol Compliance: Ensures that peripheral interfaces comply with the APB protocol standard.
  • Low Power and Low Bandwidth: The APB is optimized for peripherals with minimal power and bandwidth requirements.
  • Error Injection Capabilities: Supports error injection to simulate real-world issues like protocol violations and system failures.
  • Single-Cycle Read/Write Operations: Verifies the functionality of single-cycle read and write operations, ensuring that peripherals with simple data exchange can perform efficiently and without delay in different test scenarios.
  • Timing and Clock Validation: Validates the clock and timing parameters essential for proper master-slave communication.
