Avalon AIP
Formal Verification
Overview

SmartDV’s Avalon Assertion IP delivers robust formal verification coverage tailored for the Avalon bus protocol widely used in FPGA and SoC designs. These pre-validated assertions enable early detection of protocol violations and functional errors, ensuring reliable and standards-compliant bus communication.

Engineered to be fully tool-agnostic, SmartDV’s Assertion IP integrates seamlessly with all leading EDA formal verification platforms, giving verification teams the flexibility to use their preferred tools without limitation. Delivered as synthesizable and configurable source code, it supports easy customization and reuse across multiple projects, accelerating the verification process.

By leveraging SmartDV’s Avalon Assertion IP, teams can speed up formal verification cycles, improve design integrity, and ensure strict compliance with Avalon protocol standards—offered as a flexible, vendor-neutral solution designed for efficient and scalable verification workflows.
