Problem with adding .sdf file from Cadence to ModelSim

[Vlad Cretu]

Hello,


I open the start simulation window, select the testbench with the appropriate resolution. I select the sdf file. and enter the region.




In the images you can see the setup and the simulation started without the sdf file.

The structure of the system is the following:
MFCV_system_alpha_tb -> MFCV_system_top (UUTT)

and the MFCV_system_top is generated by encounter together with the sdf file.

I get the following error for every instance in the MFCV_system_top : Failed to find INSTANCE '\UUT.I89.I1.I21 '

Are you specifying the SDF according to the following:
-sdfmin/sdftyp/sdfmax [<instance>=]<filename>

where instance should probably something like MFCV_ssytem_alpha_tb.UUTT.UUT

It looks like you might not have specified the design unit to annotate i.e: [<instance>=].
