MIPI BIF Verification IP

The SmartDV's MIPI BIF Verification IP is fully compliant with Version 1.00 MIPI Alliance specification and verifies the Battery Interface.It includes an extensive test suite covering most of the possible scenarios. It performs all possible protocol tests in a directed or a highly randomized fashion which adds the possibility to create the widest range of scenarios to verify the DUT effectively.

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

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