The deliverable

What you’re licensing

A Iopmp peripheral delivered as synthesizable SystemVerilog soft-IP. It is delivered as a licensable soft-IP block engineered as an ASIL-B Safety Element out of Context — not just RTL, but the complete functional-safety work package needed to carry it into an ISO 26262 program:

Synthesizable RTL

Portable, vendor-neutral SystemVerilog that drops onto your existing SoC fabric — no foundry or EDA-tool lock-in.

Per-IP FMEDA report

SPFM / LFM / PMHF computed against the ASIL target per ISO 26262-5 — the quantitative analysis your assessor asks for.

Safety manual

Assumptions of use, the safety mechanisms and their diagnostic coverage — written to drop straight into your safety case.

IP-XACT + integration docs

A machine-readable descriptor plus register and integration documentation for fast, low-risk bring-up.

Self-checking testbench

A self-checking (crypto: bit-exact) testbench and a one-command build, so you can reproduce every claim on day one.

Iopmp — Introduction

    ## What it is

    A Iopmp peripheral delivered as synthesizable SystemVerilog soft-IP. Delivered as synthesizable SystemVerilog on a APB4 slave with
    built-in ASIL B safety instrumentation.

Key Features

Per-region base+mask, per-master sid_mask, R/W/X permissions
Priority match + default-deny; global bypass for boot
Transaction check (\rightarrow) allow / violation (captured for diagnosis)
Config-register parity (err_code 1) — cannot silently widen a permission
Permission-check spatial DMR (err_code 9) — cannot silently fail open

Standards & Compliance

RISC-V IOPMP, AMBA / TileLink interconnect, ISO 26262 (FFI / SEooC)

Getting Started

// Minimal instantiation
iopmp #(
  .ADDR_W(6)
) u_iopmp (
  .clk       (clk),
  .rst_n     (rst_n),
  // APB4
  .p_paddr   (paddr),
  .p_psel    (psel),
  .p_penable (penable),
  .p_pwrite  (pwrite),
  .p_pwdata  (pwdata),
  .p_prdata  (prdata),
  .p_pready  (pready),
  // Safety
  .err_clear (1'b0),
  .err_valid (err_valid),
  .err_code  (err_code)
);

Configure via the CTRL register after reset to enable the IP and set operating parameters. Monitor err_valid / err_code for any safety faults reported by the built-in safety monitor.

Applications

Where it fits

Typically deployed in RISC-V SoCs that need a safety-grade core, boot, memory, debug, and interrupt platform.

The case

Why license it, not build it

Skip 12–18 months

The FMEDA and the safety case are already generated. You integrate a finished safety element — you don’t stand up a safety-IP program to originate one.

One vendor, one safety story

Every block in the catalog shares the same safety architecture, fault-reaction model, and FMEDA methodology — so subsystems roll up cleanly.

Verified, not vapor

The RTL builds and passes today; the safety metrics come from analysis and fault injection against real RTL, not a datasheet promise.
