USB 3.0 Verification IP provides an smart way to verify the USB 3.0 component of a SOC or a ASIC. It provides backward compatibility support for earlier versions 1.0 and 2.0 of USB specifications. The SmartDV's USB 3.0 Verification IP is fully compliant with standard USB Specification 3.0. The USB 3.0 VIP can be readily customized and optimized for a wide range of specific system applications.
USB 3.0 VIP is supported natively in SystemVerilog, VMM, RVM, AVM, OVM, UVM, Verilog, SystemC, VERA and non-standard verification env
