ContributorHello,
It is possible to probe signal tap using
pre-synthesis or post-fitting results from quartus.
This is actually not correct,
if you run compile only, you cannot probe the "pre-synthesis db".
if you run synthesis, then you are able to probe the "pre-synthesis db".
So signal tap: pre-sythesis
shall be named post-synthesis.
Super ContributorNo. Pre-synthesis refers to signals exactly as they are defined in your HDL code. You don't need to perform full synthesis to get pre-synthesis signals for Signal Tap. Just run Analysis & Elaboration, which does not perform any synthesis. The compiler checks your HDL files and makes the pre-synthesis signals available for assignments like in the Assignment Editor and for tapping in Signal Tap.
ContributorNo. run Analysis & Elaboration and you will see that you cannot probe the signal tap probes (delete the db before and try with a vqm from synplify). Quartus std edition.

Super ContributorHi Alex,
Any other concern regarding this?
Super ContributorIt's a 3rd-party synthesis result. It has to get integrated into the project somehow.
Super ContributorHi Alex,
by definition vqm is already synthesized by third party as mentioned but it need to get integrated with Quartus flow thus a compilation is necessary
Super ContributorAlex,
May I know if there is any update?
