AMBA AHB VIP
Simulation
Overview

SmartDV’s AMBA AHB Verification IP is designed to verify high-performance, high-bandwidth bus-based communication in SoC designs through simulation. Fully compliant with the AMBA AHB protocol specification, it enables thorough validation of single-master or multi-master AHB-based systems with precision and speed.

The VIP supports major verification languages, including SystemVerilog and Verilog, and integrates seamlessly with methodologies such as UVM, OVM, and VMM. It is simulator-independent and compatible with all leading EDA vendors’ simulators, ensuring flexibility across diverse verification flows.

With configurable master and slave agents, built-in protocol checkers, scoreboards, and comprehensive coverage models, SmartDV’s AHB VIP accelerates testbench development and ensures robust protocol compliance. It helps verification teams efficiently validate AHB-based interconnects for a wide range of embedded, automotive, and consumer applications.
