In short: SoC verification is mostly about integration: the individual IP blocks are already verified, so at the chip level you focus on how they connect and work together. The key areas are pin muxing, protocol checks at block boundaries, reset and boot-up, memory and register access, control and data paths, analog integration, low power,…
In short: A clock monitor is a reusable SystemVerilog/UVM component that watches a clock signal and automatically checks its frequency, duty cycle, and on-the-fly switching, and flags glitches or timeouts. Because it is built as a uvm_monitor inside a uvm_agent, you can plug it into any UVM environment and verify complex clock systems without writing…
In short: The SoC verification flow is the end-to-end process of proving a whole chip works once all its blocks are stitched together. It moves through five stages: pull out the features to test, write a verification plan, build the environment and run tests, close functional and code coverage, then sign off. The focus at…
