twentynm_fp_mac_encrypted simulation in questasim

Hi,

I have some problem with simulaion fpga project with twentynm_fp_mac_encypted component.

How can I get HDL code for simulation of this component

or find full information about functions of this componet ?

Thank you

    I need to run simulation OpenCL FPGA project of neural network (NN) with float point computations.

    Can I generate in Qsys tool HDL code of this NN for simulation ?

    QuestaSim get this error

    Module 'twentynm_fp_mac_encrypted' is not define.

    As per you previous threadhttps://www.alteraforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=57404

    Can you edit the msim_setuo.tcl file and check again.

    1.Add below lines in Compile device library files section of msim_setuo.tcl 

    
eval  vlog $USER_DEFINED_COMPILE_OPTIONS     "$QUARTUS_INSTALL_DIR/eda/sim_lib/mentor/twentynm_atoms_ncrypt.v"      -work twentynm  
eval  vlog $USER_DEFINED_COMPILE_OPTIONS     "$QUARTUS_INSTALL_DIR/eda/sim_lib/mentor/twentynm_hssi_atoms_ncrypt.v" -work twentynm_hssi
eval  vlog $USER_DEFINED_COMPILE_OPTIONS     "$QUARTUS_INSTALL_DIR/eda/sim_lib/mentor/twentynm_hip_atoms_ncrypt.v"  -work twentynm_hip

    Best Regards,

    Hi ,

    Can you share your msim_setuo.tcl file?

    Hi ,

    You can simulate designs using the encrypted IP but cannot edit them. To simulate the IP, you need to compile the twentyfivenm library. This file can be found in the Quartus intallation directory.

    C:\IntelFPG\17.1\quartus\eda\sim_lib

    You can compile the twnetyfivenm VHDL /Verilog files into your work library and then recompile and simulate your design.
