I2C Assertion IP provides an efficient and smart way to verify the I2C designs quickly without a testbench. The SmartDV's I2C Assertion IP is fully compliant with standard I2C Specification.
I2C Assertion IP is supported natively in SystemVerilog, VMM, RVM, AVM, OVM, UVM, Verilog, SystemC, VERA, Specman E and non-standard verification env
I2C Assertion IP comes with optional Smart Visual Protocol Debugger (Smart ViPDebug), which is GUI based debugger to speed up debugging.
