The AMBA AXI STREAM Verification IP provides an effective & efficient way to verify the components interfacing with the AMBA® AXI5 stream and AXI4 stream bus of an IP or SoC. The AMBA AXI5 stream and AXI4 stream VIP are fully compliant with standard AMBA® AXI5 stream and AXI4 stream specifications 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.
AMBA AXI STREAM Verification IP
Overview
