To accelerate the simulation speed and improve the coverage of verification for a field programmable gate array (FPGA) implemented with dead pixel correction of an infrared image, an FPGA automatic verification platform based on SystemVerilog-Direct programming interface(SV-DPI) was designed. Using DPI programming interface technology, the C++ programming language was invoked by the SV platform. A generator and correction model for dead pixel data of infrared images was built. This established a communication between two languages on the transaction level. The results show that, compared with the traditional verification method, the proposed platform is simple in structure and can quickly generate a test vector, construct a reference model, and check results automatically. It realizes automated verification for an FPGA implemented with dead pixel detection and correction of an infrared image. The function coverage can reach 100%. It effectively shortens the period of construction and debugging for the FPGA verification platform and improves the efficiency and quality of verification.
