GDDR5 Memory Model

GDDR5 Memory Model provides an smart way to verify the GDDR5 component of a SOC or a ASIC. The SmartDV's GDDR5 memory model is fully compliant with standard GDDR5 Specification and provides the following features. Better than Denali Memory Models.

GDDR5 Memory Model is supported natively in SystemVerilog, VMM, RVM, AVM, OVM, UVM, Verilog, SystemC, VERA, Specman E and non-standard verification env

GDDR5 Memory Model comes with optional Smart Visual Protocol Debugger (Smart ViPDebug), which is GUI based debugger to speed up debugging.
