SPI slave to Avalon master bridge core

Hello!
I'm trying to simulate SPI slave to Avalon master bridge core. I can see that when I issue a read transaction then under some conditions the start symbol 0x7c in the core response is lost. It is acknowledged by the MISOctl module but it doesn't appear in the output shift register rdshiftreg. It looks like a sync problem between sclk and system clock domains. Is it something wrong with my setup or is it really a bug in the IP?

    Hi,

    Sorry for getting back to you rather late. Can you let me know which module are you simulating in modelsim? Which library can I find this module in?

    Can you also let me know which version of Quartus are you using?

    Thanks,

    Nurina

    Hi,

    I use Quartus Prime Version 20.1.1 Lite Edition with Modelsim Intel FPGA Starter Edition 2020.1.

    I use spi_test.do as a simulation script. Top level module is spi_test_tb, which instantiates spi_test module and a Qsys testbench with SPI Slave to Avalon Master Bridge IP as a DUT and BFMs. Spi_test module is to provide stimuli on SPI bus.

    Hi,


    You are simulating this through NativeLink right?

    I can't seem to perform the simulation, can you let me know what steps you took to do it?

    Thanks,
