LPC Verification IP

LPC (Low Pin Count Interface) Verification IP provides an smart way to verify the LPC bi-directional bus. The SmartDV's LPC Verification IP is fully compliant with version 1.1 of the LPC Specification and provides the following features.

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

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