Is there any way to simulate FPGA in MATLAB simulink such as proteuse ?

[femtoronics]

hi

I wanna to simulate a VHDL code in simulink like simulating for example AVR in proteuse . can any body help me ?

Thanks in Advanced .

using hdl coder you can run vhdl in modelsim co-simulation simulink block.

hi TrickyDicky.

could you please explain me clear ? I placed co-simulation-HDL block in my Simulink Model but I don't know how to link it to Modelsim Altera.
in the other word I don't know how to load my VHDL code into co-simulation-HDL block .

Regards.

you need to load modelsim and use the vsimulink command instead of vain to make sure the link is established. also mke sure your port definitions on simulink match. I suggest looking at the cosimulation examples in simulink.

thanks for your answering TrickyDicky.

I compiled my counter.VHDL code by Quartus Altera . then I exported it to counter.VHDL Testbench, (counter.vht).then I started MATLAB and change the directory into the counter.VHDL testbench directory and I entered "vsim('socketsimulink', 4449)" command then Modelsim Altera 6.4 started Automatically with that directory. I compiled counter.vht successfully in modelsim . then I placed Cosimulation HDL in simulink model and change the connection in socket 4449 . but when I enter "/counter" in Auto fill in Port tab this Error is appeared: handshaking with the server failed- server was NOT an "HDL link " server , change the port.

How to fix this error ?

thanks in advanced.

you need at least the PE version of modelsim. You cannot do it with the free Altera version.
