GDDR2 Memory Model provides an smart way to verify the GDDR2 component of a SOC or a ASIC. The SmartDV's GDDR2 memory model is fully compliant with standard GDDR2 Specification and provides the following features. Better than Denali Memory Models.
GDDR2 Memory Model is supported natively in SystemVerilog, VMM, RVM, AVM, OVM, UVM, Verilog, SystemC, VERA, Specman E and non-standard verification env
GDDR2 Memory Model comes with optional Smart Visual Protocol Debugger (Smart ViPDebug), which is GUI based debugger to speed up debugging.
