The Synopsys APB General Peripheral components include many of the commonly used AMBA Peripheral bus building blocks. The components are highly configurable providing the design engineer the flexibility to tailor the components to their desired design requirements. Comprehensive subsystems can be quickly assembled using coreAssembler, an included graphical based subsystem assembly tool. coreAssembler automates the subsystem assembly and IP configuration which includes the creation of an initial verification testbench environment enabled by Synopsys Verification IP, thus reducing the time to first simulation.

The Synopsys APB General Peripheral components for AMBA are available in encrypted format as part of the DesignWare Library. RTL source code is available for license separately, on a pay-per-use basis as part of the DWC APB Peripherals license package.

Programmable controller for the remap and pause features of the AMBA 2 AHB interconnect (View Product Details for DW_apb_rap)

• Allows safe programmable control of the remap feature of the DW_ahb
• Supports forcing the DW_ahb bus into a low power mode with the pause feature
• Performs reset signal monitoring on a configurable number of interrupts

Programmable watchdog timer peripheral for the AMBA 2 APB Bus (View Product Details for DW_apb_wdt)

• Programmable timer width and timeout value
• Programmable reset pulse or interrupt generation on timeout event
• Support for an external clock to drive the timeout counter
• Prevents accidental counter restarting and device disabling Verification IP for AMBA 2 AHB/APB and AMBA 3 AXI

Verification IP for AMBA 2 AHB/APB and AMBA 3 AXI

• SystemVerilog, VHDL and OpenVera testbenches to generate bus traffic and check for protocol violations
• Monitors provide extensive reports to show functional coverage of the bus protocols
