  1. Seminar for the Class of Digital Systems Electronics R. Antonicelli ST Belgium, Network Division The VHDL simulation environment Polytechnic of Bari May 5 – 7, 2004

  2. What is simulation good to? • When we write down a VHDL code, we must ensure a good matching between the digital circuit and our model • Thus, we need to check every signal and monitor the source code step by step • With a simulator tool we can easily reach these goals

  3. What simulators are often used? • Modelsim by Mentor Graphics * * * * * • Leapfrog by Cadence * * * • Saber by Cadence * • VSS by Synopsys *
