ModelSim SE Tutorial

T-42 Lesson 4 - Working with multiple librariesIntroductionIn this lesson you will practice working with multiple libraries. As discussed inLesson 1 - ModelSim conceptual overview, you might have multiple libraries toorganize your design, to access IP from a third-party source, or to share commonparts between simulations.You will start the lesson by creating a resource library that contains the counterdesign unit. Next, you will create a project and compile the testbench into it.Finally, you will link to the library containing the counter and then run thesimulation.Design files for this lessonThe sample design for this lesson is a simple 8-bit, binary up-counter with anassociated testbench. The pathnames are as follows:Verilog – /modeltech/examples/counter.v and tcounter.vVHDL – /modeltech/examples/counter.vhd and tcounter.vhdThis lesson uses the Verilog files tcounter.v and counter.v in the examples. If youhave a VHDL license, use tcounter.vhd and counter.vhd instead.Related readingModelSim User’s Manual, 3 - Design libraries (UM-55)ModelSim SE Tutorial
