Overview

eUSB Verification IP provides an smart way to verify the eUSB component of a SOC or a ASIC. It provides backward compatibility support for earliers versions 1.0 and 2.0 of USB specifications. The SmartDV's eUSB Verification IP is fully compliant with standard Embedded USB2 (eUSB2) Physical Layer Supplement to the USB Revision 2.0 Specification Rev.1.1 and USB 1.1/USB 2.0 Specification.

eUSB VIP data transfer can be done at different speeds. Which intuitively involves high speed(480 Mbit/s), full speed(12 Mbit/s) or low speed(1.5Mbit/s). The eUSB VIP includes an extensive test suite covering most of the possible scenarios. It performs all possible protocol tests in a directed or a highly randomized fashion which adds the possibility to create the widest range of scenarios to verify the DUT effectively. This way it detects the violation of protocol completely.

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

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

What Designers Need to Know About USB Low-Power States

In addition to performance and interoperability, achieving low power has been one of the requirements for industry standards specifications. Some of the key specifications like Universal Serial Bus (USB), PCI Express (PCIe), and MIPI have defined power saving features for burst traffic. This whitepaper explains how Synopsys USB IP offers low power using various low power states that go beyond the basic features.
