摘要： An Ethernet co-simulation interface for use with a software-based simulation tool and a design under test disposed on a programmable device can include a host interface and a network processor. The host interface can execute on a host computing system and facilitate data transfer between the software-based simulation tool and a communication link to the design under test. The network processor can be implemented within the programmable device and facilitate data transfer between the communication link and the design under test. The host interface and the network processor can exchange simulation data formatted as raw Ethernet frames over a point-to-point Ethernet connection.

摘要： Co-simulation of a circuit design includes simulating a first subset of blocks of the circuit design on a software-based co-simulation platform, simulating a second subset of the blocks of the circuit design on a hardware-based co-simulation platform, and maintaining coherency for a memory block of the circuit design between a first representation of data in the memory block on the software-based co-simulation platform and a second representation of the data in the memory block on the hardware-based co-simulation platform.

摘要： A first block, a second block, a shared memory, and a third block are generated in a circuit design in response to user input control. The first block is coupled to the second block, the second block is coupled to the shared memory, and the shared memory is coupled to the third block in response to user input control. During one cycle of a simulation, the second block, in response to the first block, accesses a set of scalar values in the shared memory using scalar accesses. During one cycle of the simulation, the set of scalar values is transferred between the second block and the first block. During the simulation, the shared memory is accessed by the third block using scalar accesses.

摘要： Method and apparatus for creating a circuit design. An object-oriented program instantiates a plurality of objects that model a circuit design. The objects have hierarchy attributes, connectivity attributes, and display attributes that describe a plurality of modules. The hierarchy attributes define parent-child relationships between modules, the connectivity attributes define input-output connections between modules, and the display attributes define a layout of the modules for viewing. Each of the objects has an associated method for generating a design specification in a selected format. When the program is executed, the design specification is generated from the set of objects. Depending on the capabilities of the available tools, the modules and logic elements are displayed in accordance with the display attributes either from the object-oriented program or from the design specification.

摘要： A method of resetting a programmable logic device (PLD) for use with hardware co-simulation can include loading a full bitstream into the PLD. The full bitstream can program the PLD with a circuit design to be used with a first simulation. The method further can include loading a partial bitstream into the PLD thereby resetting at least one component of the circuit design that does not have a reset function such that the circuit design is initialized for use in a subsequent simulation.

摘要： Method and apparatus for clock stabilization detection for hardware simulation is described. More particularly, a lock signal is obtained, for example from a digital clock module. A least common multiple (LCM) clock signal is generated, for example from a clock module. A control signal is generated at least partially responsive to the LCM clock signal and the lock signal. The control signal may be generated from a state machine and applied to select circuitry, where the control signal is used to mask application of the output clock signal responsive to the control signal.

摘要： A method of modeling a design in a high level modeling system that supports unidirectional data flow, may comprise identifying a bus-block to represent a connectivity of a bi-directional bus in an system. The bus-block may be represented in serial relationship with the bus. Taps may interface the bus via the bus-block. During simulation, the bus-block emulates behavior of a tri-state buffer in series with an input line for the tap interface. During synthesis, pairs of unidirectional input and output lines of opposite data-routing orientation, which may emulate bus ports to the bus-block, may be collapsed to a single bus port. The synthesis may further generate a netlist that may dispose a tri-state buffer between a tap input and the bus. The netlist may also represent layout of the tri-state buffer for driving an output of the tap.

摘要： Various approaches for interfacing an application-independent hardware object with an application system are disclosed. The various approaches involve instantiating a first object that contains at least one configuration parameter. The configuration parameter specifies a location of a configuration bitstream for implementing functions of the hardware object in a programmable logic circuit. A second object is instantiated and is configured to open, in response to a program call to a first function provided by the second object, an interface to the programmable logic circuit. A programmable logic circuit is configured with the configuration bitstream in response to instantiation of the second object, and, in response to a program call to the first function, an interface to the programmable logic circuit is opened.
