AXI4 master protocol verification environment

A simulation-focused verification environment for AXI4 master-side protocol behavior.

← Work ledger

Problem

The objective was to separate stimulus generation, observation, checking and coverage so protocol behavior could be judged independently rather than by waveform inspection alone.

My contribution

I constructed the verification environment around driver, monitor, scoreboard and coverage roles. Exact simulator version and coverage figures remain unpublished until the saved regression artifacts are recovered.

The verification topology keeps the component that causes a transaction separate from the components that observe and judge it.

VERIFICATION / LIMIT

What the record proves

This record proves simulation-oriented verification work. It does not claim hardware validation or a specific coverage percentage.

EVIDENCE
  • Verification source/testbench record — provenance audit pending
  • Coverage/regression artifacts — recovery required
