Altera library missing- Modelsim

Hello All,

I have built a system on Altera DSP builder and sucessfully exported to VHDL files to bring it on Quartus II. I need to run Powerplayanalysis, for that .vcd file needs to be generated by modelsim. And Modelsim can't compile the design because it misses Altera library to compile the project. My question is how to do poweranalysis for the digital systems built on dsp builder? otherwise is there any otherway for simulation to extract timing statistics to run the power analysis for my design?

Regards,

Dilip

    You could use the TestBench block to generate a modelsim testbench or perhaps you could use the VCD Sink block to generate a VCD file directly in Simulink.

    After generating VCD file on simulink, How do i run Powerplay analysis? should i have to use quartus II?

    Thanks,
