SmartDV’s I2C Verification IP is a comprehensive solution for verifying the Inter-Integrated Circuit bus, the industry-standard two-wire serial protocol for efficient inter-IC communication in embedded system designs. Fully compliant with the NXP I2C-bus Specification and User Manual UM10204 Rev. 7.0 and backward compatible with all earlier revisions, it supports complete verification of I2C Master and Slave components across all defined clock speeds including Standard Mode, Fast Mode, Fast Mode Plus, High-Speed Mode, and Ultra-Fast Mode, covering 7-bit and 10-bit slave addressing, all transfer types, multi-master arbitration and clock synchronization, and AT24C1024 EEPROM memory model support.
SmartDV’s I2C VIP supports UVM, SystemVerilog, and Verilog, and integrates seamlessly into diverse verification environments. It is simulator-independent and compatible with all leading EDA simulators, providing flexibility across simulation platforms.
With comprehensive error injection across all I2C error conditions, START byte generation, wait state insertion, glitch injection, bus-accurate timing, built-in functional coverage, and a complete test suite, SmartDV’s I2C VIP enables verification teams to thoroughly validate I2C interface designs for automotive, industrial automation, IoT, consumer electronics, and embedded system applications.
