An example of DISPLAY-CTRL IP Component verification in SCE-MI based emulation platform

Abstract

In this paper we present an example of a DISPLAY-CTRL IP component verification in an SCE-MI based emulation platform. The basic parts of this platform are some transactors. Their task is communication between the testbench written in the high level language SystemC (software side) and the IP component, placing in FPGA on an emulation board (hardware side) through an SCE-MI infrastructure. Using the platform to simulate the DISPLAY-CTRL IP component we achieve a performance increase of about 70x over software only event-driven simulation.
