Harnessing the Power of UVM for AMS Verification with XMODEL

A UVM Reactive Testbench for Jitter Tolerance Measurement of High-Speed Wireline Receivers

This tutorial offers hands-on learning for writing UVM testbenches for analog/mixed-signal circuits. It will show that the framework of UVM can be extended to verifying analog circuits simply by using a well-defined fixture module encapsulating the device-under-verification (DUV) model and its AMS instrumentations described with XMODEL primitives.

This paper presents a UVM testbench that can measure the jitter tolerance characteristics of a high-speed wireline receiver model described in SystemVerilog/XMODEL. The measurement of jitter tolerance requires an iterative search and the testbench extends the reactive stimulus technique of UVM to find the maximum sinusoidal jitter that can be tolerated by the receiver system.
