micheleandClaude Sonnet 5 c4763aab10 test: directed SDRAM boundary verification + SPI frequency sweep
PRE-PCB CLOSURE Point 1: adds tb_sdram_boundary.v, a directed (not
randomized) regression covering address 0/1/last/last-1, an explicit
row-boundary crossing, all 3 inter-bank boundary crossings, the real
V2 memory-map region boundaries (weights/activations/results), and
every DQM byte-mask combination with explicit read-after-write.
21/21 PASS at both 64MHz and 166MHz, zero bugs found.

PRE-PCB CLOSURE Point 2: adds tb_spi_freq_sweep.v, a reproducible SPI
bit-rate sweep against the real fpga_neural_v2_top (osc_clk driven at
the real 64MHz clk_sys rate via the SIM PLL bypass). Found and fixed a
race in the new test harness itself (a fixed-time wait before reading
a WRITE_MEM/READ_MEM response, too short whenever a periodic AUTO
REFRESH delayed the backend) -- not a spi_host_bridge.v defect,
confirmed against tb_spi_host_bridge.v's own isolated regression.
Determined the real, deterministic CDC margin: the synchronizer
requires >=5 system-clock cycles per SPI bit (exactly 64MHz/5 =
12.8MHz); recommends SPI_MAX_VERIFIED=12MHz with real margin below
that hard edge.

// ============================================================
// PRE-PCB CLOSURE, POINT 1 -- directed SDRAM boundary verification.
//
// tb_sdram_controller.v already covers randomized-address and
// pseudo-limit coverage (test I). This testbench is a SEPARATE,
// purpose-built regression targeting EXACT, individually-named
// addresses the randomized sweep does not specifically guarantee to
// hit: address 0/1, the last valid address and its predecessor, an
// explicit row-boundary crossing, explicit bank-boundary crossings
// (all 4 banks), the real V2 memory-map region boundaries
// (weights/activations/results), and every DQM byte-mask combination
// with an explicit read-after-write check. Real Alliance Memory
// AS4C4M16SA-6TIN geometry (confirmed against sdram_controller.v's
// own address decode): word address = {bank[1:0], row[11:0],
// col[7:0]}, 4 banks x 4096 rows x 256 cols x 16 bits = 4M words = 8MB.
//
// BURST_LEN=1 is used throughout (not the default 4) so every address
// in this test names an exact, single physical word -- burst-wrap
// semantics are already covered elsewhere (tb_sdram_controller.v's
// own BURST_LEN=4/8 sweep) and are orthogonal to this test's own
// purpose (address-decode correctness at exact boundaries).
// CLK_FREQ_MHZ=64 is the real board target (default parameter here),
// not one of the legacy 100/133/166MHz sweep points.
