万方数据 万方数据 摘 要 摘 要 随着集成电路的制造工艺和计算机辅助设计（EDA）工具的发展，集成电路 在集成度和性能方面不断提高。目前专用集成电路的规模已经达到亿门级，并且 这种规模还在不断提高，这使得验证工作的复杂度迅速提高。验证工作已经成为 芯片设计流程中的瓶颈。 GST（GSM Sleep Timer）模块是基带芯片中一个比较重要的控制模块，主要 用来控制基带芯片的休眠与唤醒，以达到节省功耗的目的。GST 模块功能的正确 性和精度直接决定着手机的功耗和通信质量，故对 GST 模块的验证工作在整个基 带芯片的验证工作中显得尤为重要，GST 模块设计中的缺陷必须被验证出来。 基于此，本文介绍了基于直接测试和基于 UVM 随机测试两种验证方法，详 细阐述了这两种验证方法的具体实现方案和验证策略，并最终给出了两套验证环 境对 GST 模块的仿真和验证结果。同时比较了两套验证环境的优缺点及各自应用 场合。 关键词：验证 测试平台 GST 模块 UVM 覆盖率 基带芯片中 GST 模块验证方法的研究与实现 Abstract Abstract With the development of integrated circuit manufacturing process and EDA tools, IC integration and performance are continuous improvement. Currently, the scale of ASIC has reached million gates level, and this scale is still rising, which makes the complexity of verification rapidly increasing. Verification has become a bottleneck in the process of IC design. Block GST(GSM Sleep Timer) is an important control block in baseband, which is used to control the sleep and wakeup of baseband to reduce power consumption. GST’s functional correctness and precision directly determines the quality of the phones power and communications. So, verification for GST in the verification work of the entire baseband chip is particularly important, design defects must be verified. Based on these, this paper introduces two verification method, direct-test based and UVM based. Specific implementation and validation policy for these two methods are introduced. Simulation and verification results for GST under these two verification environment are also presented. At last, the advantages and disadvantages of each verification method and applications are introduced.
