  • With the development of advanced industries, research on image processing hardware is essential, and timing verification at the gate level is required for actual chip operation. For FPGA-based verification, DDR3 memory interface was previously applied. But recently, as the FPGA specification has improved, DDR4 memory is used. In this case, when a previously used memory interface is applied, the timing mismatch of signals may occur and thus cannot be used. This is due to the difference in performance between CPU and memory. In this paper, the problem is solved through state optimization of the existing interface system FSM. In this process, data read speed is doubled through AXI Data Width modification. For actual case analysis, ZC706 using DDR3 memory and ZCU106 using DDR4 memory among Xilinx's SoC boards are used.

  • In this paper, the animated simulation system (Anisim) is proposed in order to develope an efficient functional system verification tool. It displays the simulation results of the designed system using graphic animation with various models lot the target system. With simple interface definitions given by the user, Anisim generates interface codes automatically. Users can describe and model the target system with the generated interface codes. Since the simulation engine is implemented in C-language, modeling is very simple and simulation can be performed in real time.

  • This paper describes the simulation environment that verifies whether a new microporcessor described with HDL is compatible with an existing microprocessor. The compatibility verification is done by showing that the new microprocessor executes the OS(Operating System) program used in the existing microprocessor without any modification of its binary code. The proposed verification environment consists of a virtual system and a graphic user interface (GUI) module. Each module is independently designed based on serve-client model and three exists a communication part for information interchange between the two modules. This paper describes the method of constructing the verification environment and presents the compatibility verification environment of the x86 microprocessor as the simulation result.

  • NuDE 2.0 (Nuclear Development Environment 2.0) is a formal-method-based software development, verification and safety analysis environment for safety-critical digital I&Cs implemented with programmable logic controller (PLC) and field-programmable gate array (FPGA). It simultaneously develops PLC/FPGA software implementations from one requirement/design specification and also helps most of the development, verification, and safety analysis to be performed mechanically and in sequence. The NuDE 2.0 now consists of 25 CASE tools and also includes an in-depth solution for indirect commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software dedication of new FPGA-based digital I&Cs. We expect that the NuDE 2.0 will be widely used as a means of diversifying software design/implementation and model-based software development methodology.

  • In this paper, we design and implement verification and interface application for interactive data broadcasting middleware. This application implements ACAP and OCAP verification item according to their types (format, protocol. resource, presentation). Therefore, using this application, we can verify whether digital settop-boxes used in digital terrestrial television and digital cable television conforms to the ACAP and OCAP standards. In this paper, we evaluate our proposed application using TVPLUSiTM verifier which can verify interactive TV application in real broadcasting environment. Through performance evaluation, we show that the DTB-H650F set-top-box supports OCAP and ACAP standard 80% and 95%, respectively.

  • Simulator is a development equipment which enables the ECU to operate in normal mode by simulating the interface signal between ECU and mechanical system electrically. Embedded simulator means simulation function is embedded in ECU firmware, hence the electrical signal interface is replaced by the substitution of information at system program level. This paper explains the development of embedded transmission simulator for the verification of TCU firmware function which covers shifting control and on-board diagnosis. The embedded simulation program is executed in TCU processor along with the TCU firmware and it provides TCU firmware with not only the speed information those are appropriate both in driving and shifting conditions, but also the fault detection signals. Experimental results show that the validity of embedded simulator and its usefulness to the TCU firmware development and verification.

  • When several resuable semiconductor IPs are connected and implemented into an integrated chip, each semiconductor IP should provide code files for synthesis and interface modeling files for simulation and verification. However, description methods and levels of abstraction of interface modeling files are different because these semiconductor IPs are designed by different designers, which makes some problems in simulation and verification. This paper proposes a standardized modeling method of semiconductor IP interfaces. It restricts semiconductor IP interfaces to several predefined level of abstraction. The proposed method helps the chip integration designer to easily connect different semiconductor IPs and to simulate and verify them.
