How do I connect a differential pair from a Quartus® II-generated simulation netlist to another component that requires both the positive and the negative pins?

Description

Quartus II-generated Verilog Output File (.vo) and VHDL Output File (.vho) netlists contain only the positive pins of differential pairs (e.g., LVDS and LVPECL).

To connect a Quartus II-generated simulation netlist to another component that requires both the postive and negative pins, create a Verilog HDL or VHDL wrapper file around the netlist including a new output pin that inverts the positive output pin of the differential pair.
