Abstract

At development of complex IC one of the basic and most labour-consuming problems is testing RTL-model of IC. Verification should be as much as possible full, otherwise even the small mistake can lead to significant loss of time and means. Such situation dictates necessity not only testings in CAD, but also development of prototypes for debugging in real conditions of functioning. In paper ways of functional modelling of a microcircuit in the conditions most reflecting specificity of functioning of a real microcircuit are shown. Merits and disadvantages of various ways and approaches to modelling are shown. The positive effect from the described approach has been got by development of a microcircuit of the graphic accelerator. Besides in paper the opportunity of development of universal plates of prototypes for debugging microcircuits of various type is shown.
