Migrating design from MAXPLUS to Quartus

Hello, I could successfully migrate the design from MAXPLUS (.gdf) to Quartus (.bdf). I see that there exist a set of .snf and .scf files, which after reading the MAXPLUS documentation I found ou...

Hi Naveen,

You may refer to link below for details how to get access scf and snf file using Maxplus. You can try to open it using Waveform Editor in Quartus as it same thing which is functional tool as in Maxplus, let me know if works. Since you can migrate to bdf, you can straight away simulate your design in QP using Waveform Editor which later produce vho/vo netlist of your design.

Hello @SyafieqS

Thank you for the link.

The waveform editor can open only .vwf files and not .scf or .snf files. I tried this in both Q13.1 and QP18.1. Hence I still need to find out how to access the content in .scf and .snf files in Q13.1 or in QP.

Also, any idea how to use a .vec file to drive simulation inputs? I have a large vector file which has simulation test vectors. I would like to use this to drive the input signals during simulation.
