AXI2OCP Bridge Functional Verification

AXI2OCP Bridge is a critical component in modern SoC (System on Chip) designs where AXI and OCP interconnect protocols need to communicate seamlessly. The AXI2OCP Bridge converts AXI transactions into OCP format and vice versa, enabling protocol interoperability inside complex semiconductor architectures.

This course provides in-depth training on AXI2OCP Bridge Functional Verification using SystemVerilog and UVM (Universal Verification Methodology). It covers the complete verification flow followed in semiconductor companies, from specification understanding to coverage-driven verification and regression setup.

The program is designed for freshers and working professionals who want to build expertise in Protocol Verification, SoC Verification, and ASIC Functional Verification.
