浙江大学硕士学位论文 浙江大学硕士学位论文 目录⑨ 摘要 本课题的研究对象是EPA(EthemetforPlantAutomation)芯片的功能验证，EPA芯片 是一款自主研发的基于EPA国际标准的芯片，随着EPA国际标准被越来越多的工业自 动化领域厂商使用，为了保证EPA芯片的性能，EPA芯片的功能验证具有重要的意义。 由于传统验证方法验证效率低，可重用性差，无法满足EPA芯片验证的需求，本 文为了解决EPA芯片的功能验证问题，提高验证的效率、完备性和可复用性，提出了 一种新型的基于OVM(Open Verification Methodology)架构的验证方案。该验证方案包括 基于OVM架构的验证平台，和以代码覆盖率和功能覆盖率相结合为验证结果检查机制， 受约束随机激励和定向激励相结合为激励产生机制的验证策略。在分别对本文提出的验 证平台和验证策略进行分析和阐述后，本论文以EPA芯片的重要子模块——MlI接收模 块为例，将该验证方案应用于MII接收模块的验证中，只用了15天的验证时间，便达 到了100％功能覆盖率和95％代码覆盖率的验证结果。经实践证实，本文提出的验证方 案比传统验证方法，提高了130％的验证效率，增强了50％的验证完备性，提升了验证 平台的可复用性。 关键词 功能验证，OVM。SystemVerilog．EPA。事务级建模。验证平台 n 浙江大学硕十学位论文 浙江大学硕十学位论文 舳。眦。⑦ Abstract This paper focuses on functional vedfication of EPA(Ethemet for Plant Automation) chip．EPA chip is a system—level chip based on EPA international standard with intellectual property．As EPA international standard being acknowledged by more and more industrial automation manufacturers，functional verification plays an important role to ensure the performance of EPA chip． Due to its lOW efficiency and lOW reusability,traditional verification method Can’t meet the requirements of functional verification on EPA chip．In order to solve this problem, improve the verification efficiency,completeness and reusability,this thesis puts forward a new verification proposal based on OVM(Open Vefificmion Methodology)．The new verification proposal includes a verification platform based Oil OVM，and coverage—driven verification strategy with constraint random stimulus and direct stimulus．After detailed analysis on verifcation platform and strategy,this verification proposal is excised on MI I receiving module．a sub-module of EPA chip．It reached 1 00％functional coverage and 95％ code coverage within 1 5 days．It’S proved-that,compared with traditional verification method， this new proposal increases 1 30％verifi
