JESD204D Verification IP

Truechip's JESD204D Verification IP provides an effective & efficient way to verify the components (data converters and/or logic devices) connecting with JESD204C link.

Truechip's JESD VIP is fully compliant with standard JESD204D specification from JEDEC standard. This VIP is a light weight VIP with easy plug-and-play interface so that there is no hit on the design time.

Key Benefits

• Available in native SystemVerilog (UVM/OVM/VMM) and Verilog
• Unique development methodology to ensure highest level of quality.
• Availability of Compliance & Regression Test Suites
• 24X5 customer support
• Unique and customizable licensing models
• Exhaustive set of assertions and cover points with connectivity example for all the components
• Consistency of interface, installation, operation and documentation across all our VIPs

Features

• Truechip JESD204D VIP is compliant to the latest JESD204D,C.01,C &B specification by JEDEC
• It is also backward compatible with all the previous versions of JESD204
• Supports a wide range configurations for data converter devices
• Over single and multiple serial links with each link can support single or multiple lanes as per requirements
• Supports serial data rates up to 36 Gbps
• Support physical layer (PHY) classes
• FEC support will be there as per requirement, users can enable and disable
• Multiple FEC Modes are supported with respect to PHY Classes
• One or more convertor devices are supported
• Supports configuration variants:
  • Single vs. multiple converters per converter device
  • Single lane vs. multiple lanes per converter device
  • Single converter device vs. multiple converter devices connected to one logic device
• Supports all working modes:
  • Data mode vs. test mode
  • Active mode vs. idle mode
• Supports all class devices for B category like B-3, B-6, B-12
• Supports all class devices for C category like, C-S, C-M, C-R
• Supports all Subclasses and ability to support Deterministic latency in Subclass 1:
  • Subclass 0 also which is intended for interfacing to JESD204A
  • Subclass 1 for RS-FEC link layer (64/66 & 8b/10 also for old compatibility)
  • Subclass 2 for 8b/10b link layer(not in 204D for backward compatible)
  • Subclass 3 for RS-FEC link layer
• Supports generation of SYSREF or MULTIREF and using them in alignment of LAC(LMFC/LEMC)
• Alignment of LMFC using SYNC~ also supported for device subclass 2
• Supports transport layer mapping as per JESD204C protocol
• Supports oversampling during transport layer mapping
• Supports 64B/80B and 64B/80B link layer with the following Features:
  • 64B/66B and 64B/80B encoding
  • Sync header stream provides transmission of information parallel to the user data
  • Additionally CRC-12 / CRC-3 for error detection, Forward error correction (FEC) for error detection, correction, reporting and command channel for transmitting commands and status information
  • Sync header alignment and Extended multiblock alignment at receiver
• 8B/10B link layer is also supported
• Supports both “hard-wired” SYNC interface and “soft” SYNC interface and SYNC interface is compatible with JESD204A & JESD204B
• Supports combined and non-combined SYNC~ signaling for 8B/10B link layer
• Frame and lane alignment and monitoring is supported
• Hard wire and soft sync interface is supported
• Supports up to 32 lanes
• Scrambler can be enabled or disabled
• Supports easy configurations and err-injection scenarios
• Supports functional coverage with bus coverage and configuration coverage
• Supports comprehensive compliance test suite, Constraint random test cases and error injection test cases for verification
• Supports strong protocol monitoring and checks
• Supports transaction logger with the option of GUI
• Supports strict assertion checks.
