SPI/ST MEMS Verification IP

Overview

SPI/ST MEMS Verification IP provides an smart way to verify the serial synchronous communication protocol.The SmartDV's SPI/ST MEMS Verification IP is fully compliant with SPI Block Guide V04.01 of the Motorola's M68HC11 user manual rev 5.0 SPI-Bus Specification and MEMS digital output motion sensor Specification and provides the following features. It can work with Verilog HDL environment and works with all Verilog simulators that are support SystemVerilog.

SPI/ST MEMS Verification IP is supported natively in SystemVerilog, VMM, RVM, AVM, OVM, UVM, Verilog, SystemC, VERA, Specman E and non-standard verification env

SPI/ST MEMS Verification IP comes with optional Smart Visual Protocol Debugger (Smart ViPDebug), which is GUI based debugger to speed up debugging.

Key Features

Follows SPI/ST MEMS basic specification as defined in MEMS digital output motion sensor
Support Master and Slave Mode
Supports data width of 8 bit
Supports 3-wire,4-wire interface
Support baud rate selection
Support internal clock division check.
Support clock polarity and clock phase selections.
Support Write and Read middle abort
Support single and burst transfer mode.
Support on the fly generation of data.
Supports constraints Randomization.
Glitch insertion and detection
Built in functional coverage analysis.
Supports backdoor initialization of data.
Status counters for various events on bus.
Supports single,dual bus width operation
Supports Callbacks in master, slave and monitor for modifying, and sampling data/cmd on SPI/ST MEMS.
SPI/ST MEMS Slave can be configured as standard device or can use FIFO for data passing.
Master contains rich set of commands for both standard device and FIFO model mode.
Notifies the test bench of significant events such as transactions, warnings, and protocol violations. This can be written to separate log files.
SPI/ST MEMS Verification IP comes with complete test suite to test every feature of SPI/ST MEMS specification.

Benefits

Faster testbench development and more complete verification of SPI/ST MEMS designs.
Easy to use command interface simplifies testbench control and configuration of slave and master.
Simplifies results analysis.
Runs in every major simulation environment.
