基于VMM统一验证平台的Serdes芯片验证

The Serdes core verification based on VMM uniform verification platform

本文基于VMM验证平台,介绍了高速串行收发器芯片的验证方法。文章首先简要介绍了Serdes芯片和VMM验证方法,然后搭建了Serdes芯片的VMM统一验证平台,并从测试激励产生、寄存器读写控制、覆盖率自动统计、断言验证及覆盖率收敛等几个方面详细阐述了Serdes芯片的验证过程。最后给出了验证结果和测试报告。

This paper mainly presents the verification method of high speed serial interface core which is based on VMM uniform verification platform.The Serdes core and the VMM verification method are introduced in this paper firstly,Then the VMM uniform verification platform of Serdes core is built,and it also describes the Serdes verification process in detailed which includes the test patterns generating,automatic calculating of coverage,assertion verification and coverage convergence.Both the verification results and the test reports are given at the end of this paper.
