15 years ago --- Quote Start --- thanks! I did manage to fit the design into the FPGA without using this option, but it is nice to know as I'm now using 100% DSP's so this way I could free up some DSP's for the future... Anyway, still having problems - My design is just not working! In SinplifyDSP I get correct results, but when I try it on the FPGA - I get lots of pins stuck at GND. Using SignalTap I found that it happens after the first block that I did using the above mentioned method. I tried to simulate the vqm in Quartus - and I do get that all my outputs are stuck at GND. No idea why this is... Is it actually possible to simulate vqm's using the Built in Simulator tool? (what I need is actually a logic simulation - just to see that my "1+1" equals "2") And does anyone have any idea why this could happen? thanks again... Update: ok - this is weird... I used the option in SynplifyPRO that forces the implementation in LE's - and simulated in Quartus, and now I don't get the stuck at GND outputs... Is there a problem simulating DSP's? --- Quote End --- Hi, Unfortunately I have no experience with SynplifyDSP, only with SynplifyPro and Certify. Is your design functional when you use the LE option ? What is the output of SynplifyDSP, RTL or a kind of gatelevel with DSP blocks ? BTW: Which version of the tools do you use ? Kind regards GPK
