RapidIO IP Core User Guide Lists Wrong TOP_LEVEL_NAME for ModelSim Simulation of Non-Arria 10 IP Core Variations

Description

The name of the RapidIO IP core top-level file for simulation in the ModelSim simulator changed in the IP core v14.1 and later, for simulation of IP core variations that target a non-Arria 10 device. The user guide lists the filename tb. However, the correct filename, starting in IP core version 14.1, is rapidio_0.tb. The RapidIO MegaCore Function User Guide is not updated with this change.

For a similar issue with Arria 10 variations, refer to RapidIO Core User Guide Lists Wrong TOP_LEVEL_NAME for ModelSim Simulation of Arria 10 IP Core Variations.

For a related issue for non-Arria 10 variations, refer to RapidIO IP Core User Guide Lists Outdated Instructions for Simulation of Non-Arria 10 IP Core Variations.

Resolution

Ensure that you simulate your non-Arria 10 RapidIO IP core in the ModelSim simulator with TOP_LEVEL_NAME set to rapidio_0.tb. For non-Arria 10 variations of the IP core, replace the simulation instruction

set TOP_LEVEL_NAME tb

with the new simulation instruction

set TOP_LEVEL_NAME rapidio_0.tb

This issue will be fixed in a future version of the RapidIO MegaCore Function User Guide.
