USB 1.x/2.x VIP
Simulation
Overview

SmartDV’s USB 1.x / 2.x Verification IP is designed to verify low- and full-speed (USB 1.1) as well as high-speed (USB 2.0) serial interfaces widely used in embedded systems, consumer electronics, and PC peripherals. Fully compliant with the USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 specifications, this VIP enables accurate validation of control, bulk, interrupt, and isochronous transfers, along with enumeration, power management, and error handling.

The VIP supports major verification languages, including SystemVerilog and Verilog, and integrates seamlessly with UVM, OVM, and VMM methodologies. It is simulator-independent and compatible with all leading EDA vendors’ simulators, providing broad flexibility across simulation environments.

With configurable host, device, and hub agents, support for full protocol stack verification (PHY, Link, Protocol), built-in protocol checkers, error injection, and timing validation, SmartDV’s USB 1.x / 2.x VIP empowers verification teams to validate robust and compliant USB interfaces across a wide range of applications—from microcontrollers to consumer devices.
