JTAG (IEEE 1149.1/1149.6) Synthesizable Transactor

Overview

JTAG (IEEE 1149.1/1149.6) Synthesizable Transactor provides a smart way to verify the JTAG component of a SOC or a ASIC in Emulator or FPGA platform. The SmartDV's JTAG (IEEE 1149.1/1149.6) Synthesizable Transactor is fully compliant with standard JTAG Specification and provides the following features.

Key Features

  • Follows JTAG basic specification as defined in JTAG Specification 3
  • Supports Jtag protocol standard IEEE 1149.1 and IEEE 1149.6
  • Supports all the JTAG tap instructions
  • Supports programmable clock frequency of operation
  • Supports checks for following
    • Check-points include Initialization rules
    • State based rules,Active Command rules
    • Read/Write to Instruction and data register Rules
  • Supports instruction register and data register of size up to 64 bits
  • Supports proficiency to extend with user defined instructions and registers
  • Has ability to read BSDL file and
    • Automatically generate testvectors to test all BSDL cell types
    • Automatically generate SVA assertions properties
  • Supports all types of timing and protocol violation detection

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
