Simulation VIP for AMBA CXS

Overview

Cadence provides a mature and comprehensive Verification IP (VIP) for the CXS specification which is part of the Arm® AMBA® family of protocols. Incorporating the latest protocol updates, the Cadence® VIP for CXS is designed for easy integration in testbenches at IP, system-on-chip (SoC), and system levels. The VIP helps you reduce time to test, accelerate verification closure, and ensure end-product quality. The CXS VIP runs on all major simulators and supports SystemVerilog and e verification languages along with associated methodologies, including the Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) and Open Verification Methodology (OVM).

Supported specification: AMBA CXS v2.0 and Issue B update.
