- Change the working directory to <example_design_directory> /simulation/<Simulator>.
- In the command line, run the simulation script. The table below shows the commands to run the supported simulators.
Simulator Command QuestaSim* / ModelSim* vsim -do modelsim_sim.tcl vsim -c -do modelsim_sim.tcl (without QuestaSim* / ModelSim* GUI) Aldec Riviera-PRO* vsim -do riviera_sim.tcl vsim -c -do riviera_sim.tcl (without Aldec Riviera-PRO* GUI) VCS* sh vcs_sim.sh VCS* MX sh vcsmx_sim.sh Xcelium* sh xcelium_sim.sh The simulation ends with messages that indicate whether the run was successful or not.Figure 5.
