Research On Verification Method Of Ethernet MAC Control IP

With the rapidly development of fabrication technology in integrated circuits, system-on-chip has become reality. But system-on-chip also brings us some challenges; one of the challenges is how to verify a system-on-a-chip. Verification has become the bottleneck in the integrated circuits and consumes about 70 percent in the whole chip design,what's more, with the standardization of the intellectual property, this trend is up, and so something must be done to alleviate the trend. In the design of system-on-a-chip, the number of the intellectual property reuse-based has become more and more. How to verify the intellectual property and the whole system-on-a-chip rapidly is becoming focus in the system-on -chip verification.According to the delevelopment of IC, verification is more and more important for enginer to make the chip work in right founction。 The papel discuss the verification technology in IC design. we focus on theory of verification, verification practice, autoverification and reusable verification technology to improve the verification technology and make verification reasonable .so we can improve the efficiency of verification to assure quality of IC design.
