In this paper we display a practical approach adopted for the formal verification of SpaceWire using model checking to solve state explosion. SpaceWire is a high-speed, full-duplex serial bus standard which is applied in aerospace, so its functions have a very high accuracy requirements. In order to prove the design of the SpaceWire was faithfully implements the SpaceWire protocol’s specification , we present our experience on the model checking of SpaceWire link interface using the Cadence SMV tool. We applied environment state machine to overcome state explosion and successfully verified a number of relevant properties about transmitter and controller of the SpaceWire in reasonable CPU time.
