Data Pipeline Testbench

You can choose to generate the testbench when generating the core in the IP Manager Configuration window. To generate testbench, the Optional Signals option must be enabled.

Note: You must include all .v files generated in the /testbench directory in your simulation.
Important: Efinix tested the testbench generated with the default parameter options only.

Efinix provides a simulation script for you to run the testbench quickly using the Modelsim software. To run the Modelsim testbench script, run vsim -do modelsim.do or sh run_modelsim.sh in a terminal application. You must have Modelsim installed on your computer to use these scripts.

The testbench is designed with 256-bit data width and supports the following :
  • Enable/disable high-bandwidth and high-performance pipeline.
  • Multiplexer logic at input/output.

The testbench outputs only if there is a passing or failing of the simulation.
