Soreboard for UVM verification with AMBA VIP

Hi all,

For SOC bus verification, the UVM testbench intergrate AMBA VIPs, they provide many protocol checks.
So do we still need a socreboard?

many thanks

What are protocol checks that VIP provided? For SOC bus verification, the connectivity checking is very important which is can’t be checked by VIPs. So you need a scoreboard.

Thanks for your reply.

I am reading the VIP doc, maybe protocol checks just like timing constraints, cannot be scoreboard. I thought those checks could complete data compare when write and read, but maybe not as I expected.
