AMBA APB

Hi, anyone has reference VIP documentation or support material for AMBA APB VIP? 

Parents
  • Are you looking for an APB VIP monitor implementation, or documentation for a specific monitor implementation ?

    The APB protocol defines everything an APB design has to comply with, so as a VIP component is checking for protocol compliance you could say the APB protocol is the documentation.

    But that won't tell you anything about using a specific VIP component, or how it might annotate any protocol violations it detects.

    However I rarely see any need for an APB VIP component. It's a VERY simple protocol, and almost impossible to design such that you don't comply, so do you really need to look for a VIP component here ?
