PCIe Transactor
Emulation & Prototyping
Overview

SmartDV’s PCIe Transactor is engineered to accelerate verification of PCI Express designs in emulation and FPGA prototyping environments. It provides a transaction-level interface that enables efficient generation, monitoring, and control of PCIe protocol activity between testbenches and DUTs.

Fully synthesizable and vendor-independent, the transactor integrates seamlessly with all major emulators and FPGA platforms, delivering consistent performance and portability across diverse verification environments.

Supporting all key PCIe protocol features—including link training, data packet transmission, flow control, and error handling—the transactor offers a robust and scalable solution for early hardware/software co-verification, system integration, and high-speed interface validation.
