Abstract :
SOC (System-on-a-Chip) is the development trend of current international VLSI and is the mainstream of IC development nowadays. In this paper, We present a design and verification of a MAC controller based on AXI bus, which system architecture integrates original design components and reusable IP cores", "then discuss its implementation of Multi-level and reusable verification platform using VMM verification method. Directed random test and assertion verification technology are used in verification procedure to finish verification plan effectively. The SoC chip is tape out now.
