6.4. Simulating the Design Example

You can simulate the design by running a simulation script from the command prompt.
Note: The vertical active size is fixed to 96 lines. As a result, VTOTAL must be configured to (V1S_VEND + 96) when generating the simulation for it to proceed correctly. This only relates to the simulation design example and does not affect synthesis or simulation of the IP in user systems.
  1. At the command prompt, change the working directory of your preferred simulator based on the table below.
  2. Run the simulation scripts for the supported simulator.
    Simulator Working Directory Command
    QuestaSIM* ed_sim/sim/mentor vsim -c -do run_msim_setup.tcl
    Riviera-PRO* ed_sim/sim/aldec vsim -c -do run_rivierapro_setup.tcl
    VCS* MX ed_sim/sim/synopsys/vcsmx source sim.sh
    Xcelium* ed_sim/sim/xcelium source xcelium_setup.sh
A successful simulation displays the following message:
# dsi2_ed_sim_tb: SUCCESS: Test has completed!
# Simulation passed.
After successful completion, you can analyze the results.
