Thank you, for your reply.
But how is this possible?
Where will be the logic for DUT written in testbench?
Hi Kireeti,
Yes, it is possible and it depends on the complexity of the design specification.
Example:
Design spec: Develop TB environment for the 4 bit counter.
Then for this, you can implement the golden reference model inside the scoreboard and check the functionality. Then drive your stimulus and check further.
Like the same way you can design the complete environment for the APB protocol which has a Master and Slave combo inside the TB environment.
Most of the simple designs reference model will be developed inside the Scoreboard only.
