This paper presents a new technology that accelerates system verification. In a real life example, we achieved a speed-up of a factor of about 5000. The key for this speed-up is a configurable, synthesizable testbench architecture, which can be completely mapped to emulators or FPGAs. Exploiting generic controllers and re-using protocol-specific stimuli generators combined with topology and microprogram generation is responsible for almost zero overhead compared to behavioral testbenches.
