(转)如何使用ModelSim對Megafunction或LPM作仿真? (SOC) (MegaCore) (ModelSim)
Abstract
在FPGA開發中，常會用到Altera所提供的Megafunction與LPM加速開發，這要如何使用ModelSim作仿真呢?
Introduction
使用環境：Quartus II 8.1 + ModelSim-Altera 6.3g_p1 + ModelSim SE 6.3e
在(筆記) 如何使用ModelSim作前仿真與後仿真? (SOC) (Quartus II) (ModelSim)中，提到如何使用ModelSim對Verilog作仿真，包含前仿真與後仿真，若使用了Altera的Megafunction與LPM，則仿真的方法稍有不同，本文分別使用ModelSim-Altera與ModelSim SE，並對Megafunction：dcfifo作仿真。
my_dcfifo.v / Verilog
使用MegaWizard產生的dcfifo。

使用ModelSim-Altera與其自帶的precompiled library作仿真
使用GUI
Step 1：
改變預設目錄
File -> Change Directory
Step 2：
建立work library
Step 3：
編譯Verilog
Compile -> Compile ...
Step 4：
開始仿真
Simulate -> Start Simulation
在Design tab指定testbench。
在Libraries tab，將Altera的precompiled library加入，220model是LPM、而altera_mf是Megafunction的precompiled library。完整的說明請參考ModelSim Precompiled Libraries。
Step 5：
加入觀察信號
在Objects window按滑鼠右鍵，Add to Wave -> Signals in Region
Step 6：
執行仿真
設定300 ns，run。
使用TCL script
Step 2到Step 6的GUI，可使用以下TCL script取代。
2 vlib work
3
4 #compile
5 vlog my_dcfifo.v
6 vlog my_dcfifo_tb.v
7
8 #simulate
9 vsim -L C:/altera/81/modelsim_ae/altera/verilog/220model -L C:/altera/81/modelsim_ae/altera/verilog/altera_mf work.my_dcfifo_tb
10
11 #probe signals
12 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/aclr
13 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/wrclk
14 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/wrreq
15 add wave -literal -radix decimal sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/data
16 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/wrfull
17 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/rdclk
18 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/rdreq
19 add wave -literal -radix decimal sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/q
20 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/rdempty
21 add wave -literal -radix decimal sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/rdusedw
22
23 #300 ns
24 run 300 ns
使用ModelSim SE，每次仿真自行編譯Megafunction與LPM
若沒安裝ModelSim-Altera，只安裝ModelSim SE，就沒有Altera提供的precompiled library可用，這時若要對有使用Megafunction與LPM的code作仿真，就必須自行編譯。
使用GUI
Step 1：
將220mdel.v與altera_mf.v複製到目錄下
將C:\altera\81\quartus\eda\sim_lib\目錄下的220model.v與altera_mf.v複製到專案目錄下。
Step 2：
改變預設目錄
File -> Change Directory
Step 3：
建立work library
Step 4：
編譯Verilog
編譯220model.v與altera_mf.v需要一些時間。
Step 5：
開始仿真
Simulate -> Start Simulation
在Design tab指定testbench，與ModelSim-Altera不一樣的是不能勾選Enable optimization，因為選了之後，所有在Objects window的信號會被優化掉，而無法選取。
Step 6：
加入觀察信號
在Objects window按滑鼠右鍵，Add to Wave -> Signals in Region
Step 7：
執行仿真
設定300 ns，run。
使用TCL script
Step 2到Step 7的GUI，可使用以下TCL script取代。
2 vlib work
3
4 #compile
5 vlog my_dcfifo.v
6 vlog my_dcfifo_tb.v
7 vlog 220model.v
8 vlog altera_mf.v
9
10 #simulate
11 vsim -novopt work.my_dcfifo_tb
12
13 #probe signals
14 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/aclr
15 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/wrclk
16 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/wrreq
17 add wave -literal -radix decimal sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/data
18 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/wrfull
19 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/rdclk
20 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/rdreq
21 add wave -literal -radix decimal sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/q
22 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/rdempty
23 add wave -literal -radix decimal sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/rdusedw
24
25 #300 ns
26 run 300 ns
使用ModelSim SE，將Megafunction與LPM編譯成library，日後不必重新編譯
以上的方法雖可行，不過必須每次重新編譯Megafunction與LPM，較花時間，可將Megafunction與LPM先獨立編譯成library，以後就不用重新編譯。
使用GUI
Step 1：
建立獨立altera_lib目錄，將220model.v與altera_mf.v複製到此目錄。
Step 2：
改變預設目錄到altera_lib
File -> Change Directory
Step 3：
建立LPM library
Step 4：
編譯Verilog
需要一些時間編譯。
Step 5：
建立Megafunction library
Step 6：
編譯Verilog
需要一些時間編譯，如此已經建立好2個library。
Step 7：
改變預設目錄到含my_dcfifo.v與my_dcfifo_tb.v的目錄
File -> Change Directory
Step 8：
建立work library
Step 9：
編譯Verilog
Step 10：
開始仿真
Simulate -> Start Simulation
在Design tab指定testbench，與ModelSim-Altera不一樣的是不能勾選Enable optimization，因為選了之後，所有在Objects window的信號會被優化掉，而無法選取。
在Libraries tab加入剛剛編譯的lib。
此時速度就很快，因為LPM與Megafunction兩個lib已經編譯過了。
Step 11：
加入觀察信號
在Objects window按滑鼠右鍵，Add to Wave -> Signals in Region
Step 12：
執行仿真
設定300 ns，run。
使用TCL script
Step 3到Step 6的GUI，可使用以下TCL script取代。
2 vlib LPM
3
4 #compile 220model.v
5 vlog -work LPM 220model.v
6
7 #create Megafunction
8 vlib Megafunction
9
10 #compile altera_mf.v
11 vlog -work Megafunction altera_mf.v
Step 8到Step 12的GUI，可使用以下TCL script取代。
2 vlib work
3
4 #compile
5 vlog my_dcfifo.v
6 vlog my_dcfifo_tb.v
7
8 #simulate
9 vsim -novopt -L D:/0Clare/VerilogLab/ModelSim/altera_lib_tcl/LPM -L D:/0Clare/VerilogLab/ModelSim/altera_lib_tcl/Megafunction work.my_dcfifo_tb

12 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/aclr
13 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/wrclk
14 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/wrreq
15 add wave -literal -radix decimal sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/data
16 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/wrfull
17 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/rdclk
18 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/rdreq
19 add wave -literal -radix decimal sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/q
20 add wave sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/rdempty
21 add wave -literal -radix decimal sim:/my_dcfifo_tb/rdusedw
22
23 #300 ns
24 run 300 ns
使用ModelSim SE，將Megafunction與LPM所編譯的library建立永久的library mapping
既然已經為LPM與Megafunction建立了library，可以透過(筆記) 如何為ModelSim加入永久性的library mapping? (SOC) (ModelSim)的技巧，建立永久的library mapping。將C:\Modeltech_6.3e\modelsim.ini修改成如下所示：

10 LPM = D:/0Clare/VerilogLab/ModelSim/altera_lib/LPM

23 ;verilog_psl_checkers = $MODEL_TECH/../verilog_psl_checkers // Source files only for this release
第10行與第11行就是所加入的library mapping。如此只要一執行ModelSim SE，就可以看到LPM與Megafunction都已經mapping上了。
之後的模擬與之前的介紹一樣，唯library選擇比較方便。

Conclusion
對Megafunction與LPM作仿真，有3種方法：
1.使用ModelSim-Altera與其自帶的precompiled library作仿真。
2.使用ModelSim SE，每次仿真自行編譯Megafunction與LPM。
3.使用ModelSim SE，將Megafunction與LPM編譯成library，日後不必重新編譯，並可自行修改modelsim.ini，以便日後使用。
另外ModelSim-Altera與ModelSim SE的TCL script，在參數上稍有不同。
