Modelsim can not find "altsyncram"

Could you tell me how to include? how to check?

I also met this problem. Have you fixed it? and How do you solve this problem?

To resolve this problem you need to specify the right libraries when you are trying to simulate in ModelSim.

The breif steps are

1. Compile the testbench code <testbench.v> , it gets included in your 'work' library.

2. Select 'Simulate' -> 'Start Simulation' from the menu.

3. Click on the 'Libraries' tab in the new popup window and press 'Add' to include the 'altera_mf_ver' library (if you are working with Verilog) to the 'Search Libraries First (-Lf)'

4. Finally, select your testbench from the 'Design' tab.

The design should simulate now.

I have included some screenshots for assistance.

Dear all, I am using Modelsim for simulation,

Modelsim says" Instantiation of 'altsyncram' failed, the design unit was not found", even though 'altsyncram' is in "Altera_mf" library, listed on the "library Panel".

What should I do?

Thank you very much!

Other errors: "Instantiation of 'oper_selector' failed, the design unit was not found", there is a .ocp file in altmemphy-library, what does it do? should it be included in Modelsim?

Hi,

did you include the library in your simulation ? Seeing the library in the library panel does not mean that they are included.

Kind regards

# get a proper makefile

exec vmake work > Makefile

# Run it to compile what needs to be compiled

make

# Start simulation

vsim -L altera_mf_ver -L lpm_ver -L cycloneiii_ver -L cycloneii_ver work.dut_tb

After those you can simply do:

make; restart -f; run -all

Hello binpersonal,

I also met this problem. Have you fixed it? and How do you solve this problem?

thanks!

I also met this problem.

I am using modelsim in a Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx.

Also i am compiling verilog files (and simulating them) in command line.

I fixed it using the following command (after all necessary compilations):

vsim -c -t 1ns -quiet -L $(MEGAFUNCTIONS) work.RomTests -do "run 1000000 1ns; quit"

where MEGAFUNCTIONS should be your path to "altera_mf", which includes all megafunctions from altera:

[installation path]/altera10.0/modelsim_ae/altera/verilog/altera_mf
