How to simulate Virtex-4 PPC, MAC, etc. ? |
|
|
Hello! Having finished a board design with a Virtex-4FX and with
promising leads on the silicon, I sat down to begin my HDL coding...
when I discovered that the simulation models for the Virtex-4 PPC and
MAC components are only available in encrypted form. After poking
around a bit on the net and usenet, it seems that only the really
high-end simulators can support these encrypted models. Has anyone
found an inexpensive HDL simulator which supports these encrypted
models, or any other way to design with the cool features of the Virtex
2-pro and Virtex-4FX?
Thanks,
...Eric |

the only low cost thing is... the silicon itself, set the stuff up and load
into the FPGA together with ChipScope and test it out
