Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for verifying memory dump operations and scan dump operations. A memory specification is analyzed and parsed to generate a script for performing a memory dump operation. To verify the memory dump operation, first, a set of values are written to one or more memories of a SoC. Next, the script is executed to perform the memory dump operation, and then an output bitstream from the operation is compared to the set of values. The scan dump operation involves taking a snapshot of a model of a SoC in an emulator. A scan dump operation is performed, and an output bitstream from the operation is compared to the snapshot. The memory and scan dump operations are invoked using commands in a first language, and the commands are translated into a second language to perform the operations.
