Overview

SmartDV’s OpenGMSL Verification IP is a comprehensive solution for verifying high-speed serializer/deserializer (SerDes) connectivity for automotive video and sensor data applications. Fully compliant with OpenGMSL v3.0, it supports full-duplex transmission of unidirectional video and sensor streams alongside bidirectional data streams for Ethernet, SPI, I2C, UART, I2S/TDM audio, and GPIO, across all supported link topologies and forward link rates up to 12 Gbps.

SmartDV’s OpenGMSL 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 support for all OpenGMSL link topologies, multiple forward link rates, FEC encoding, HDCP content protection, functional safety mechanisms, complete FTSR and STFR functionality, and a full test suite, SmartDV’s OpenGMSL VIP enables verification teams to thoroughly validate automotive SerDes designs for ADAS, autonomous driving, and in-cabin infotainment applications.
