5.23.8.1 Simulating IPs

Some IPs are packaged with their own testbenches and verification suites. You can run these tests if you want to ensure the IP is working properly.

To simulate an individual DirectCore IP:

  1. Generate your design.
    1. In the Hierarchy, change the Show drop-down menu to Modules. This switches all the components to their module representation.
    2. Select the IP that you wish to simulate, right-click and choose Set As Root. You may have to expand the Hierarchy to view the IP module you wish to simulate.
  2. Click the Simulation icon in the Project Flow window to run simulation.
