Abstract-Concrete Class Connections

Chapter - Mar 15, 2018 by Verification Methodology Team

An alternative to using a virtual interface handle for DUT to UVM testbench connections is to use an abstract concrete class pair.

Messaging in Sequences

Chapter - Mar 12, 2018 by Verification Methodology Team

Sequences typically use messaging, either for debug, traceability or to report on the outcome of a built-in checking mechanism.
Messaging

Chapter - Mar 12, 2018 by Verification Methodology Team

The UVM messaging system provides an infrastructure for printing messages in a consistent format from a UVM testbench
UVM Report Catcher

Chapter - Mar 12, 2018 by Verification Methodology Team

There are situations where you may need to change a message generated by the messaging system, and the uvm_report_catcher is built-in call-back mechanism for doing this.
Command-Line Verbosity Control

Chapter - Mar 12, 2018 by Verification Methodology Team

There are several UVM plusargs that can be used to control messaging verbosity, actions and severity from the command line.
Testing Message Status

Chapter - Mar 12, 2018 by Verification Methodology Team

At the end of a UVM simulation, the report server issues a messaging summary to the transcript of the simulation.
Using Messaging

Chapter - Mar 12, 2018 by Verification Methodology Team

The recommended way to use the UVM messaging system is to use the message macros, since they automatically insert the file name and line number of the message source into the UVM message string which is useful for debugging
Complex Address Maps

Chapter - Mar 09, 2018 by Verification Methodology Team

In SoC design, the address mapping of registers and memory is often more complex than a single map.

Configuring Memory Read Completions Sent by PCIe® QVIP

Article - Mar 01, 2018 by Arushi Jain, Rajat Rastogi - Siemens EDA

In real hardware systems, the read completion sizes for upstream read requests (initiated towards the root complex) are characteristics of the processor in use and the maximum payload size (request payload size) limitations of endpoint as a receiver. Out of various aspects to be considered while creating a read completion, important aspects of data associated with it are byte enables (valid data to be read), value of the read request, and address at which the request is initiated.
SATA Specification 3.3 Gaps Filled by SATA QVIP

Article - Mar 01, 2018 by Naman Saxena, Nitish Goel, Rajat Rastogi - Siemens EDA

Developed to supersede Parallel ATA (PATA), the Serial ATA (SATA) protocol provides higher signaling rates, reduced cable sizes, and optimized data transfers for the connections between host bus adaptors and mass storage devices. SATA is a high-speed serial protocol with a point-to-point connection between the host and each of its connected devices. It is a layered protocol comprising of a command and application layer, transport layer, link layer, and physical layer.
From Power Intent to Microarchitectural Checks of Low-Power Designs - Part 1

Article - Mar 01, 2018 by Progyna Khondkar

PA-Static verification is primarily targeted to uncover the power aware structural issues that affects designs physically in architectural and microarchitectural aspects. The structural changes that occur in a PA design are mostly due to physical insertions of special power management and MV cells; such as power switches (PSW), isolation (ISO), level shifter (LS), enable level shifter (ELS), repeaters (RPT), and retentions flops (RFF).
A Hierarchical and Configurable Strategy to Verify RISC-V based SoCs

Article - Mar 01, 2018 by Dr. Mike Bartley

This article outlines a hierarchical and configurable verification strategy for RISC-V based IP and SoCs. A three-level (unit, core and SoC) hierarchy is proposed for testbenches. Each level of the hierarchical testbench is configurable for both architectural and micro-architectural parameters. At the heart of the verification strategy is an ISG (Instruction Stream Generator) and a UVM testbench.
SVA Alternative for Complex Assertions

Article - Mar 01, 2018 by Ben Cohen

This article first explains the concepts, and then by example, how a relatively simple assertion can be written without SVA with the use of SystemVerilog tasks; this provides the basis for understanding the concepts of multithreading and exit of threads upon a condition, such as vacuity or an error in the assertion, providing examples that demonstrate how some of the SVA limitations can be overcome with the use of tasks, but yet maintain the spirit ( but not vendor’s implementations ) of SVA.
