    • Check-points include power on, Initialization and power off rules,
    • State based rules, Active Command rules,
    • Read/Write Command rules etc.
    • All timing violations.
  • Supports callbacks for user to get command data on bus.
  • Supports all mode registers programming.
  • Supports for power down features.
  • Quickly validates the implementation of the GDDR7 protocol JEDEC draft specification.
  • Bus-accurate timing for min, max and typical values.
  • Constantly monitors GDDR7 behavior during simulation.
  • Protocol checker fully compliant with GDDR7 JEDEC draft specification.
  • Built in functional coverage analysis.
  • Supports Callbacks, so that user can access the data observed by monitor.
  • Notifies the test bench of significant events such as transactions, warnings, timing and protocol violations

Benefits

  • Compatible with testbench writing using SmartDV's VIP
  • All UVM sequences/testcases written with VIP can be reused
  • Runs in every major emulators environment
  • Runs in custom FPGA platforms
