MIPI RFFE Verification IP

Overview

MIPI RFFE Verification IP provides an smart way to verify the MIPI RFFE bi-directional two-wire bus. The SmartDV's MIPI RFFE Verification IP is fully compliant with version 1.0,2.0,2.1 and 3.0 MIPI Alliance specification for RF Front-End Control Interface and provides the following features.

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

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