IP traffic has been growing at a rate many could not have imagined. Driven by expanding Internet users and devices that yield faster wireless and fixed broadband access, the expeditious ethernet data rate has now reached to 400G. From 1Gbps in 1997, to 10Gbps in 2004, 100 Gbps in 2010, it took a while for the next set up to 400 Gbps.

We are living in a connected world and there are over a billion Ethernet devices around the world today. It is very interesting how Ethernet has evolved from a simple standard supporting 10 Mbps to multitude of speed modes and ubiquitous applications. From being a standard that traditionally evolved with 10x speed jumps (10M, 100M, 1G, 10G, 100G), it is now growing rapidly at non-10x speed modes (2.5G, 25G, 40G, 50G, 200G, and latest 400G) and covering diverse application areas to satisfy consumer needs.

On Monday, Synopsys announced the availability of the industry’s first verification IP (VIP) and source code test suite to support the proposed IEEE P802.3bs/D1.0 Ethernet 400G standard (400GbE). To understand how it will enable next generation networking and communication systems, we take a look at the evolution of the Ethernet.

Here, Synopsys R&D Director, Bernie DeLay, talks to EDACafe on the value of native SystemVerilog and UVM support in our VIP titles. He describes how our memory and protocol VIP have been built debug-friendly with Protocol Analyzer, and support constraint random verification for full functional coverage with back-annotation to executable verification plans.
