Best-in-class SPDIF Verification IP for your IP, SoC, and system-level design testing.

Incorporating the latest protocol updates, the mature and comprehensive Cadence® Verification IP (VIP) for the SPDIF protocol provides a complete bus functional model (BFM), integrated automatic protocol checks, coverage model, and compliance tests. Designed for easy integration in testbenches at IP, system-on-chip (SoC), and system levels, the VIP for SPDIF helps you reduce time to test, accelerate verification closure, and ensure end-product quality. Our VIP runs on all major simulators and supports SystemVerilog and e verification languages along with associated methodologies, including the Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) and Open Verification Methodology (OVM).

Supported Specification: Indian Standard DIGITAL AUDIO INTERFACE PART 3 CONSUMER APPLICATIONS (IEC 60958-1)
