Rockfish Technologies now offers a BFM for the Interlaken Bus Protocol. Interlaken was developed jointly by Cisco Systems and Cortina Systems as a chip to chip interconnect bus passing packet data in bursts across a bundle of serial lanes at high datarates.
All the Rockfish Technology BFMs share common features that add to their value. They are portable and readable, delivered unencrypted and written exclusively in commented and documented Verilog.
All the BFMs share similar interfaces that are designed to be easy to integrate into an existing testbench infrastructure, or combine with the other Rockfish Technology product, the Packet based System Verilog testbench. In this way a complete solution can be provided for a customer starting from scratch, or just the protocol specific portion of the testbench.
The Ethernet line of BFM products have all of the features listed above and support all of the PCS and MAC features for the following Ethernet protocols:
For those customers ready to make the leap to System Verilog from a prior verification language or just upgrade to a feature-rich directed random testbench, the System Verilog Core Testbench is the perfect vehicle.
The System Verilog Core Testbench includes all the elements that together comprise a complete directed random testbench for a networking application.
