We present a methodology in which the behavior of a switch level device is specified using abstract parameterized regular expressions. These specifications are used to generate a finite automaton representing an abstraction of the behavior of a blockof memory comprised of a set of such switch level devices. The automaton, in conjunction with an Efficient Memory Model [1], [2] for the devices, forms a symbolic simulation model representing an abstraction of the array core embedded in a larger design under analysis. Using Symbolic Trajectory Evaluation, we checkthe equivalence between a register transfer level description and a schematic description augmented with abstract specifications for one of the custom memories embedded in the MPC7450 PowerPC processor.
