2.3.1.4. Xcelium* Simulator

Note: Xcelium* simulator support is only available in devices with the following OPN numbers:
  • AGIx027R29AxxxxR3
  • AGIx027R29AxxxxR2
  • AGIx027R29BxxxxR3
  • AGIx023R18AxxxxR0
  • AGIx041R29DxxxxR0
  • AGIx041R29DxxxxR1
  • AGMx039R47AxxR0
For more details on OPN decoding, refer to the Agilex™ 7 FPGAs and SoCs Device Overview.
Perform the following steps to execute the simulation via a command line:
  1. Export the following environment variables:
    1. export CADENCE_ENABLE_AVSREQ_6614_PHASE_1=1
    2. export CADENCE_ENABLE_AVSREQ_12055_PHASE_1=1
  2. Change to the simulation working directory: cd <my_design>/pcie_ed_tb/pcie_ed_tb/sim/xcelium
  3. Execute the following command: sh xcelium_setup.sh USER_DEFINED_VERILOG_COMPILE_OPTIONS="-sv\ " USER_DEFINED_ELAB_OPTIONS="-timescale\ 1ns/1ps" USER_DEFINED_SIM_OPTIONS="-input\ @run" TOP_LEVEL_NAME="pcie_ed_tb.pcie_ed_tb" | tee simulation.log
    Note: The command above is a single-line command.
Note: If R-Tile is configured with Enable PIPE Mode Simulation active, use the following command instead:

sh xcelium_setup.sh USER_DEFINED_VERILOG_COMPILE_OPTIONS="-sv\ +define+XTOR_PICECXL_LM_SVS_SERDES_ARCHITECTURE\ +define+RTILE_PIPE_MODE\ " USER_DEFINED_ELAB_OPTIONS="-timescale\ 1n/1ps" USER_DEFINED_SIM_OPTIONS="-input\ @run" TOP_LEVEL_NAME="pcie_ed_tb.pcie_ed_tb" | tee simulation.log

A successful simulation includes the following message: "Simulation stopped due to successful completion!"
