4.3.1. Simics® Simulator

The Simics® Simulator for Intel FPGAs is released with the simulation model of the Agilex™ 5 E-Series device and the Agilex™ 5 E-Series Universal Virtual Platform. This provides you with a vehicle to exercise your embedded software, allowing you to simulated different use case flows including, booting from u-boot to Linux prompt from different storage devices. The Agilex™ 5 E-Series Universal virtual platform also support features such as Ethernet network connectivity and network services, simulated interaction with SDM through a model of the SDM mailbox, a model example design in the FPGA fabric, among many others.

For additional information about how to run a Simics® simulation with the Agilex™ 5 E-Series device, refer to the following:
  • Linux GSRD Simics® Virtual Platform for Agilex™ 5 E-Series
  • Zephyr* GSRD for Agilex™ 5 E-Series Simics® Virtual Platform

For information about how the features are supported by the Simics® Simulator for Intel FPGAs, refer to Simics® Simulator for Intel FPGAs: Agilex™ 5 E-Series Virtual Platform User Guide and the Simics® Simulator for Intel FPGAs User Guide.
