MACRO VERIFICATION METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow early detection of an operative failure in a macro of a master block and a slave block in a system LSI in a bus connection state.

SOLUTION: A test circuit is embedded in the macro of the master block and the slave block in the system LSI in which a plurality of function blocks are connected through the bus, and conducts a macro control operation for controlling the macro and a macro verification operation for determining a normality/abnormality of a macro operation. A verification environment is built, and connects the bus and the macro in which the test circuit is embedded. A bus connection verification and a function verification are conducted in the macro of the master block and the slave block.
