Avery Design推出PCI Express 6.0验证IP实现早期开发、标准合规性评审检查
Tewksbury, MA – May 25, 2021 – Avery Design Systems Inc., an innovator in functional verification productivity solutions, today announced availability of major updates to the company’s flagship PCI Express® (PCIe®) 6.0 and PIPE 6.0 VIP solution. Avery unveiled the solution at the PCI-Sig DevCon event this week.
The solution supports the latest features and capabilities in the high-speed interconnect protocol, including a doubling of data rates compared to PCIe 5.0, to 64 GT/s speeds, its move to PAM4 encoding and FLIT mode, the introduction of low latency FEC, and backwards compatibility with all previous specification versions.
The Avery PCIe 6.0 VIP solution enables advanced debug and compliance checking, and allows designers to run pre-silicon compliance testsuites. The updated Avery VIP supports co-simulation using a QEMU, speeding development time with early HW-SW integration with host OS and embedded software.
“Avery is a leader in PCIe and CXL VIP and we’re working with several PCIe 6.0 early adopters already as as the industry targets PCIe 6.0 and CXL 2.0 for an entirely new class of memory systems, SSDs, networking, GPUs, and many other devices, it creates heightened verification challenges given still no mainstream commercial platforms support the latest standard,” said Chris Browy, vice president of sales/marketing at Avery. “Our customers can be confident in developing their new products knowing our SystemVerilog/UVM VIP solution – including models, protocol checking, compliance testsuites, and Virtual Host QEMU co-simulation – will be able to tackle these new PCIe 6.0 design and verification challenges. Plus our ecosystem partnership efforts with several prominent controller and PHY IP and test vendors creates a best in class total IP solution.”
