As the SoC chip manufacturing process and design advances in the scale of the index rise, the ability to verify lags far behind design capacity, and it becomes the bottlenecks of producing more complex, more large-scale chip. Software and hardware has been inextricably linked in SoC embedded systems, and the proportion of embedded software getting more large, the synchronization design and verification of hardware and software is becoming an inevitable trend to solve the chip verification problem effectively. After full discussion on SoC design and verification technology, this paper focused on hardware and software co-design and verification technology. Combined with a SoC chip research and development project based on FC protocol, a complete set of hardware and software SoC chip co-verification implementation plans was given . This paper introduced the system structure of the chip, IP resources to build and verify a chip.Two verification platforms like virtual prototyping and FPGA verification platform are introduced as well. The two platforms complement each
