Seamless Fast Initialization for DDR VIP ModelsVIP Experts Blog - SynopsysAug. 24, 2015 |
DDR verification is one of the most critical and complex tasks in any SoC as it involves a controller sitting inside the DUT and an external DDR memory sitting outside the DUT on board. Here we will discuss fast initialization for DDR VIP models.
As per the JEDEC standard JESD79-4, Section 3.3.1, RESET_n needs to be maintained for a minimum of 200us. In simulation time, this value is a very long time. Furthermore, if the user’s testbench violates this timing, the Memory VIP will flag it as a UVM_ERROR and fail the simulation. Even though this violation is flagged as an error, it doesn’t affect the behavior of the VIP model.
