What Is The Difference Between Active Mode And Passive Mode With Respect To Agent? |
|
Answer» An agent is a collection of a sequencer, a driver and a monitor. In active MODE, the sequencer and the driver are constructed and stimulus is generated by sequences sending SEQUENCE items to the driver through the sequencer. At the same time the monitor assembles pin level activity into analysis transactions. In passive mode, only the monitor is constructed and it PERFORMS the same function as in an active agent. Therefore, your passive agent has no NEED for a sequencer. You can set up the monitor using a configuration object. An agent is a collection of a sequencer, a driver and a monitor.
