Looking for ways to reduce debug cycles to quickly root cause the issues in your Memory Controller/PHY and Subsystem Verification Project?

At some point, you have most likely faced one of the following challenges while debugging a memory model (Timing Issues, Log Messages, Bank Stats, Layered Debug, etc..)

Protocol and Timing Violations: When the protocol/timing violation is detected by Memory VIP the notification will display all the imperative information about the specification section being compromised including the component where the error is being reported, protocol version and what corrective action should be taken with respect to expected specification defined values.

Trace Files: Traces are special text files with useful information like start/end time of the transaction and command names, etc. For example, if the command is ‘mode register’ then all information related to ‘mode register’ fields, such as read/write commands, the associated address, data and important information like latencies, DBI, DM and Mode register settings are displayed.

Debug Ports: These provide a visual representation of protocol traffic at a high level of abstraction such as which bank the transaction is being executed on, programmed mode register values, bank state, Command and Data ID tagging to correlate the data with the corresponding commands, and other features. Debug ports are available as part of the 草榴社区 Memory VIP interface and can be loaded on Waveform viewers such as Verdi.

Verdi Protocol Analyzer Flow: This provides a graphical visualization of transactions, bank states, configuration settings of memory content, simulation, etc. Through the synchronized views, a user only needs to click on the ERROR message and details like corresponding tractions, memory address locations and signal level traffic information will be highlighted to the user.

The unique, flexible architecture of 草榴社区 Memory VIP makes it possible to be easily plugged in to any Verilog/SV/UVM/VMM based testbench setup. For more information visit, /verification/verification-ip/memory.html
