The Design and Research of the Verification Platform Based on UVM

This paper presents a new verification platform. Suite for decoder system of ultrahigh frequency RFID, the new platform is based on the method of UVM (Universal Verification Methodology). Compared to traditional verification platform, the new verification platform has many advantages, such as stronger reuse and extensibility, more reasonable hierarchical structure, higher efficiency and verification automation. And the platform is coverage-driven. Significantly, it enhances the efficiency and quality of verification. Now the verification platform has been successfully applied to the design and verification of decoder system in an ultrahigh frequency RFID tag chip. The verification report shows that coverage is expected and meet the requirement.
