DDR Memory Model

DDR Memory Model provides an smart way to verify the DDR component of a SOC or a ASIC. The SmartDV's DDR memory model is fully compliant with standard DDR Specification and provides the following features. Better than Denali Memory Models.

DDR Memory Model is supported natively in SystemVerilog, VMM, RVM, AVM, OVM, UVM, Verilog, SystemC, VERA, Specman E and non-standard verification env

DDR Memory Model comes with optional Smart Visual Protocol Debugger (Smart ViPDebug), which is GUI based debugger to speed up debugging.
