DDR4 Memory Model provides an smart way to verify the DDR4 component of a SOC or a ASIC. The SmartDV's DDR4 memory model is fully compliant with standard DDR4 Specification and provides the following features. Better than Denali Memory Models.
DDR4 Memory Model is supported natively in SystemVerilog, VMM, RVM, AVM, OVM, UVM, Verilog, SystemC, VERA, Specman E and non-standard verification env
DDR4 Memory Model comes with optional Smart Visual Protocol Debugger (Smart ViPDebug), which is GUI based debugger to speed up debugging.
