SMBus v3.3.1/3.2
System Management Bus verification — the I2C-derived management-plane protocol with its own timeout, PEC (Packet Error Checking), and alert-response conventions.

Planned — scoped for this wave; deliverables not yet built. Ask if you need it sooner.
Verification IP is not safety-rated. These are testbench components — no ASIL target, no FMEDA, no IP-XACT, no safety-mechanism interface. They exist to help you verify a design, not to carry a safety argument. The safety soft-IP catalog is over here.
The deliverable
What is scoped
Scoped, not yet built
This VIP is specified against the protocol’s public standard and scheduled for the current wave. The deliverables below describe the intended shape, not shipped code.
Ask if you need it sooner
Scoping is done, so a concrete date is a conversation away. Customer demand reorders the wave.
Same shape when it lands
Every shipping VIP arrives as a clean-room bus-functional model, a passive protocol checker, and a self-checking interop testbench.
System Management Bus verification — the I2C-derived management-plane protocol with its own timeout, PEC (Packet Error Checking), and alert-response conventions.
Key Features
- SMBus-specific timeout (25ms clock-low) and bus-idle detection, distinct from plain I2C
- Packet Error Checking (PEC/CRC-8) verification
- Alert Response Address (ARA) and Host Notify protocol scenarios

This VIP is scoped but not yet built — tell us your timeline and we will reorder the wave.
Verification IP is testbench collateral and is deliberately not safety-rated: no ASIL target, no FMEDA, and no IP-XACT descriptor. It carries no functional-safety claim.
