MIPI I3C Post Silicon Validation IP (MIPI I3C Protocol Analyzer And Exerciser) provides a smart way to post silicon validation of the MIPI I3C component of a SOC. MIPI I3C Post Silicon Validation IP provides an smart way to post silicon validation of the MIPI I3C bi-directional two-wire bus.The SmartDV's MIPI I3C Post Silicon Validation IP is fully compliant with Specification for I3C version 1.1 of the MIPI I3C Bus Specification and provides the following features.
MIPI I3C PSVIP is supported natively in SystemVerilog, VMM, RVM, AVM, OVM, UVM, Verilog, SystemC, VERA, Specman E and non-standard verification env
MIPI I3C PSVIP comes with optional Smart Visual Protocol Debugger (Smart ViPDebug), which is GUI based debugger to speed up debugging.
