Table 2-3: Qsys Generation Output Files
Directory Description
<testbench_dir>/<variant_name>/testbench Includes testbench subdirectories for the Aldec,
Cadence, Mentor, and Synopsys simulation tools
with the required libraries and simulation scripts.
<testbench_dir>/<variant_name>/testbench/<cad_
vendor> Includes the HDL source files and scripts for the
simulation testbench.
<testbench_dir>/<variant_name>/testbench/<variant_
name>_tb/simulation/submodules Includes the HDL files for simulation.
Simulating the SR--IOV Example Design
Follow these steps to simulate the Qsys system using ModelSim:
1. In a terminal window, change to the
<working_dir>/sim/mentor
directory.
2. Start the ModelSim simulator by typing
vsim
.
3. To compile the simulation, type the following commands in the terminal window:
•
do msim_setup.tcl
(The
msim_setup.tcl
file defines aliases.
•
ld_debug
(The
ld_debug
command argument stops optimizations, improving visibility in the
ModelSim waveforms. )
•
run -all
Running A Gate-Level Simulation
The PCI Express testbenches run simulations at the register transfer level (RTL). However, it is possible to
create you own gate-level simulations. Contact your Altera Sales Representative for instructions and an
example that illustrate how to create a gate-level simulation from the RTL testbench.
