1.4. Simulating the Design Example Testbench
You can compile and simulate the design by running a simulation script from the command prompt.
Figure 7. Procedure
Note: Prior the simulation, you must generate tile-related files described in Generating Tile Files.
- At the command prompt, change to the testbench simulation directory cd <design_example_dir>/ex_*G/sim.
- Run the IP setup simulation:
ip-setup-simulation -quartus-project=../../hardware_test_design/eth_f_hw.qpf
- At the command prompt, change the working directory to <design_example_dir>/example_testbench.
- Run the simulation script for the supported simulator of your choice. The script compiles and runs the testbench in the simulator. Refer to the table Steps to Simulate the Testbench.
- Analyze the results. The successful testbench displays "Simulation Passed".
Table 2. Steps to Simulate the Testbench Simulator Instructions Synopsys* VCS* In the command line, type: sh run_vcs.sh
Synopsys* VCS* MX In the command line, type: sh run_vcsmx.sh
Use this script when the design contains Verilog HDL and System Verilog with VHDL.
ModelSim* SE or QuestaSim* or Questa* Intel® FPGA Edition In the command line, type: vsim -do run_vsim.do
If you prefer to simulate without bringing up the GUI, type:vsim -c -do run_vsim.do
Xcelium* In the command line, type: sh run_xcelium.sh
A successful simulation ends with the following message:
Simulation Passed.
or
Testbench complete.
After successful completion, you can analyze the results.
