HMC Synthesizable Transactor provides a smart way to verify the HMC component of a SOC or a ASIC in Emulator or FPGA platform. The SmartDV's HMC Synthesizable Transactor is fully compliant with standard HMC Specification and provides the following features. Better than Denali Memory Models.
HMC Synthesizable Transactor
Overview
Key Features

- Supports packet retry
- Checks for following:
- Check-points include power up,initialization and power off rules
- State based rules, active command rules
- Read/Write command rules etc
- All timing violations
- Supports various types of error injection support
- Supports write data mask and data strobe features
- Supports 4GB/8GB configuration
- Supports internal ECC data correction
- Supports error detection (cyclic redundancy check [CRC]) for packets with automatic retry
