Mid-term project requirement Write a complete spec of MSDAP - - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

ASIC Design Final project requirement - 1

Mid-term project requirement

– Write a complete spec of MSDAP

• Introduce the application
• Analyze the application in terms of operation and I/O requirements
• Explain the particular computation method
• Describe the procedure of developing a spec
• Develop a complete spec of MSDAP

ASIC Design Final project requirement - 2

– Develop a behavior model of MSDAP based on the spec

• The behavior model needs to be written in VHDL (or Verilog with

the permission of TA)

• The model should cover the complete spec requirement

ASIC Design Final project requirement - 3

– Develop a testbench of MSDAP

• Write a spec for the testbench based on the spec of MSDAP
• Write a testbench based on the spec in VHDL (or Verilog with the

permission of TA)

• The testbench is the behavior model of the “host machine”

discussed in the class

• Connect the testbench with your behavior model of MSDAP and

test all possible transitions (operation conditions) and reasonable number of inputs/outputs

• Mark your tested results to show they cover the necessary design

corners, and they are correct.

ASIC Design Final project requirement - 4

– Writing requirement

• A technical report on this project

– Objective – Main work – Results – Remarks and comments – Use examples and figures properly – Write in a logical, formal and technical manner

• Source codes for both behavior model and testbench
• Simulation (test) results (well marked and explained)
• A set of power points slides for the presentation of your project in

15 minutes

ASIC Design Final project requirement - 5

– Deadline: Oct. 21, 2015.

• Send electronic copy to TA
