-Altera Software

This ModelSim design example is for the ModelSim-Altera (Verilog) version. To simulate the design in the
ModelSim-Altera software, follow these steps:

1. Unzip

ddr-clk-msim.zip

file to any working directory on your PC.

2. Locate the folder in which you unzipped the files to and open the DDR_CLK.do file in a text editor.
3. In line 1, replace <insert_directory_path_here> with the directory path of the appropriate library files.

For example,

C:/Modeltech_ae/altera/verilog/stratix

4. On the File menu, click Save.
5. Start the ModelSim-Altera software.
6. On the File menu, click Change Directory.
7. Select the folder in which you unzipped the files. Click OK.
8. On the Tools menu, click TCL, and click Execute Macro.
9. Select the DDR_CLK.do file and click Open. The DDR_CLK.do file is a script file for the ModelSim-

Altera software to automate all the necessary settings for the simulation.

10. Verify the results shown in the Waveform Viewer window.

The following figure shows the expected simulation results in the ModelSim-Altera software.

Design Example 2: Generating Clock Signals

This design example uses the ALTPLL IP core to generate and modify internal clock signals. This example
generates three internal clock signals from an external 100-MHz clock signal.

In this example, you perform the following activities:

• Generate 133 MHz, 200 MHz, and 200 MHz clocks that are time shifted by 1.00 ns from a 100 MHz

external input clock using the ALTPLL IP core.

• Implement the

shift_clk

design by assigning the EP1S10F780 device to the project and compiling the

project.

• Simulate the

shift_clk

design.
