The Interlaken Synthesizable Transactor is compliant with 1.2 specifications and verifies Interlaken interfaces. Interlaken is build on top of it to make it robust. Interlaken Synthesizable Transactor provides a smart way to verify the Interlaken component of a SOC or a ASIC in Emulator or FPGA platform. Interlaken Synthesizable Transactor is developed by experts in networking, who have developed networking products in companies like Intel, Cortina-Systems, Emulex, Cisco. We know what it takes to verify a networking product.
- Features
-
- Follows Interlaken specification as defined in Interlaken protocol definition v1.2
