SmartDV’s PSI5 Verification IP is a comprehensive solution for verifying the Peripheral Sensor Interface 5, the open standard two-wire current interface for connecting peripheral sensors to electronic control units in automotive electronics. Fully compliant with PSI5 Specification Version 2.3, it supports complete verification of PSI5 ECU and Sensor components across the Manchester-coded current-modulated digital interface at 125 kbps and optional 189 kbps, asynchronous and synchronous bus modes, bidirectional communication, variable data word lengths from 10 to 28 bits, and all three defined error detection methods including single-bit parity, 3-bit CRC, and 6-bit CRC.
SmartDV’s PSI5 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 high EMC robustness and low emission characteristics modeled in the interface, all defined bus mode configurations, complete bidirectional communication coverage, built-in functional coverage, and a complete test suite, SmartDV’s PSI5 VIP enables verification teams to thoroughly validate PSI5 sensor interface designs for automotive airbag systems, chassis safety, powertrain sensors, ADAS sensor fusion ECUs, and all peripheral sensor applications requiring reliable current-loop automotive connectivity.
