Overview

The Cadence® Verification IP (VIP) for SWD provides support for the Serial Wire Debug protocol which is part of the Arm® Debug Interface Specification. It provides a highly capable compliance verification solution that supports simulation, formal analysis, and hardware acceleration platforms incorporating the latest protocol updates with integrated automatic protocol checks and coverage model. Designed for easy integration in testbenches at IP, system-on-chip (SoC), and system levels, the VIP for SWD runs on all major simulators and supports SystemVerilog and e verification languages along with associated methodologies, including the Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) and Open Verification Methodology (OVM).

Supported specification: SWD v1 and v2 as per Arm Debug Interface specification v6.0 (ADIv6.0).

Key features

  • Serial Wire Debug Port
    • Fully supports SWD-DP functionality as per section B4 of ADIv6.0 specification
  • Serial Wire/JTAG Debug Port
    • Fully supports SWD-related functionality of SWJ-DP as per section B5 of ADIv6.0 specification, including customizable JTAG/SWD switching mechanism
  • Error Injection
    • Ability to inject errors at the single-bit level (Parity, Start bit, Park bit, and so on)
