Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of SOC verification testing, and in particular to a system on chip SOC simulation verification method, device, verification server and storage medium. Background technique [0002] With the development of information technology and semiconductor technology, consumer electronic products are increasingly miniaturized, with increasingly complex functions, more and more supported interfaces, and lower power consumption. The main factor driving this change is the System on Chip (System on Chip) on a Chip, SoC) technology development. SoC refers to the integration of a complete system on a single chip. The current chip manufacturing technology is sufficient to integrate multiple processor cores, controllers and acceleration engines on a chip the size of a fingernail. compared to personal computers. SoC completes so many functions that the internal structure of the chip is very complicat...

Problems solved by technology

However, the above two methods need to run the verification program directly on the simulation verification device. The simulation verification device as a whole adopts the method of CPU equal-ratio frequency reduction to realize the simulation of the SOC module logic. The real speed of the CPU operation is only about 1MHz. Long time to complete verification

And it needs to monopolize all hardware resources. In one environment, only serial time-sharing verification can be done. Users responsible for different module tests need to wait in line, and the test efficiency is low.

Among them, the emulator needs to rely on the support of the I / O board, and the simulation verification device itself has a low simulation rate, resulting in a low communication rate between the emulator and the simulation verification device, and the loading of the verification program takes a long time; and the simulation verification device The method of loading the verification program in the background requires format conversion of the verification program file, and the simulation verification device needs to be restarted each time the verification program file is loaded, the overall loading is cumbersome and the loading time is longer
