Hi ,

I am quite new to Altera (Xilinx /Actel guy up to date) and I am trying to simulate an Altera NCO IP with frequency modulation input to see its frequency resolution performance.
I wrote the following .do file:


Code:
#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
# Compile sources & test
#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

vcom -work work -nologo -novopt NCO_CORDIC.vho 
vcom -work work -nologo tb_dds_cordic.vhd 

#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
# Start simulator
#++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

vsim  {work.tb_dds_cordic(test)} \
      +notimingchecks \
	  -novopt \
      -t ps \  
add log -r *

set StdArithNoWarnings 1
run 0.0 ns;
set StdArithNoWarnings 0
#--------------------------

do wave_dds_chirp.do

run 50000 us;

I am running Modelsim 6.5b PE . When I run the simulation , the two files compile but I get the error: ** Error: (vsim-3170) Could not find 'C:\FPGA\DDS\work. '. But in the work folder there are the .dbs , .dat files (output of the compile process). What 's going on here?

Regards

hi,

I did have the same problem and u need to press ctrl + shft + E which leads to general settings and set ur top level entry. and rerun the simulation and it works.

cheers,
sreeni
