Keeping Up with UCIe 1.1 Verification Using Synopsys VIP for UCIe

Ever since UCIe™ (Universal Chiplet Interconnect Express™) consortium was formed and version 1.0 of the UCIe specification was released, the chiplet/die-to-die ecosystem has been frenzied. IP architects and developers have their task cut-out for them – to come up with a robust design and implementation that benefits from the heterogenous system without compromising their power, performance, and area (PPA) goals. System architects and designers are busy putting the technology in their next generation SoCs. Verification teams are running against time to create test and coverage plans based on the integrated logic before they receive disintegrated chip RTL.
