Simulation
Overview

SmartDV’s JESD204 Verification IP is built to verify high-speed serial interfaces used in data converters and high-bandwidth applications through simulation. Fully compliant with JESD204, including JESD204A, JESD204B, JESD204C, and the latest JESD204D specifications, it enables accurate and efficient validation of JESD204-based links between ADCs, DACs, and logic devices.

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, offering flexibility across different verification environments.

With configurable transmitter and receiver agents, integrated protocol checkers, scoreboards, and detailed coverage metrics, SmartDV’s JESD204 VIP accelerates testbench development and ensures protocol compliance. It helps verification teams confidently validate high-speed serial connectivity in applications such as wireless infrastructure, radar systems, medical imaging, and high-performance instrumentation.
