SmartDV Broadens Support for Arm AMBA Protocol with Verification IP Solutions for AMBA CHI, CSX, LPI


SAN JOSE, Calif., July 07, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SmartDV™ Technologies, the Proven and Trusted choice for Design and Verification Intellectual Property (IP), broadens its support for the Arm® AMBA® protocol with availability of Verification IP solutions for AMBA CHI, CXS and LPI protocols.

Today’s announcement underscores SmartDV’s commitment to the Arm developer community with an already extensive portfolio of earlier AMBA bus protocol solutions. Now available are AMBA CHI, CXS and LPI protocol Verification IP, assertion IP and SimXL™, Synthesizable Transactors for accelerating system-level, system-on-chip (SoC) testing on hardware emulators or field programmable gate array (FPGA) prototyping platforms.

“Arm AMBA protocols including CHI, CXS and LPI continue to be important components of high-performance, multi-processor SoCs," comments Deepak Kumar Tala, SmartDV’s managing director. “Verification engineers require high-quality Verification IP solutions for each of them to connect and manage a SoC’s functional blocks, whether its coherent processors and high-performance interconnects, point-to-point communications or handling clock and power features. SmartDV meets this need so verification engineers can verify and debug their designs quickly, easily and more effectively.”

SmartDV’s proprietary, automated compiler-based technology ensures quick delivery of its offerings compliant with standard protocol specifications for new or evolving applications. Its Verification IP solutions are used throughout a coverage-driven chip design verification flow in simulation, emulation, FPGA prototyping and formal verification environments.



Included with all SmartDV’s AMBA Verification IP are a configurable bus functional model (BFM), protocol monitor and library of integrated protocol checks. They support all major verification languages and methodologies, including the open verification methodology (OVM), universal verification methodology (UVM) and SystemC.

Availability and Pricing
The SmartDV Verification IP portfolio is available now and backed by an experienced R&D team who work individually with each user installation.


Pricing is available upon request.
