Abstract
Before verifying the functionality of SoCs, designers must ensure the correctness of the pin-accurate interfaces of up to hundreds of integrated IP blocks. This article presents a new connection model and a corresponding error model for pin-accurate port connections, along with an algorithm for generating the minimum pattern set, a methodology for diagnosing errors, and a port connection verification flow.
