Psl assertions for checking ECC

archive

Hi all,

I would like to know if it useful to  write the psl assertions for checking the ECC(error correction code).The ECC is a standard algorithm(Hamming Code).

Thanks,

  • hi,

    Other than running a reference encoder in parallel and writing an assertion to say that both outputs must always be the same, I am not aware of another way to verify this with assertions.

    I assume that there will be a decoder block somewhere in the larger system, or is the ECC data the final output of the chip?
    If you could get the decoder then the previous method will verify both parts.

    Regards,
    Vince.
