Design of AMBA 3.0 (AXI) Bus Based System on Chip Communication Protocol

P. Akhila, K. Ch. Prathap Kumar M

Abstract: System on a Chip (SoC) design has become more and more complexly, because difference functions components or IPs (Intellectual Property) will be integrated within a chip. The challenge of integration is “how to verify on-chip communication properties. Although traditional simulation-based on-chip bus protocol checking bus signals to obey bus transaction behavior or not, however, they are still lack of a chip-level dynamic verification to assist hardware debugging. We proposed a rule based synthesizable AMBA AXI protocol checker. The AXI protocol checker contains 44 rules to check on-chip communication properties accuracy. In the verification strategy, we use the Model sim to verify AXI protocol checker.
