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