Occasional ContributorHow do I make modelsim fwrite/dump an 8 bit array literally in binary.
Hello SyafieqS, thank you for your reply, but, your link does not cover any binary writing of data. It is ok as I fround out how and finally got my testbench SystemVerilog .bmp picture saver working.
Source example located here: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/fpga/systemverilog-example-testbench-which-saves-a-bmp-picture-and-executes-a-script/msg3448860/#msg3448860
Instruction are located in the first post in that thread.
The relevant code is in the source file 'ellipse_generator_tb.sv' line 203, opening the file for write as a 'wb' for write binary. And when $fwrite data, the two possible in quotes methods are "%c" for a single character, or "%u" for writing a 32bit word located on lines 215, 218 & 225.
