Abstract
In a video system, a method and system for efficient design verification of a motion adaptive deinterlacer (MAD) are provided. A MAD reference model may be configured via a configuration file to generate test parameters for the verification of a MAD hardware model. Test-bench interface drivers and a verification monitor may be utilized to transfer test parameters to the MAD hardware model and to verify simulated results. Modes of verification may comprise a normal mode, a pixel processing mode, and a field controller mode. During the normal mode, simulated pixel information and register settings generated by the pixel processor and field controller in the MAD hardware model may be compared to expected pixel information and register settings generated by the MAD reference model. During the pixel processing mode, expected and simulated pixel information may be compared. During the field controller mode, expected and simulated register settings may be compared.
