Description

HDL Simulation with ModelSim teaches you to effectively use ModelSim to verify VHDL, Verilog, and mixed VHDL/Verilog designs. You will learn how ModelSim supports HDL behavioral simulations, and some basic concepts in the digital design flow. Hands-on lab exercises will reinforce lecture and discussion topics and provide you with extensive tool usage experience under the guidance of our industry expert instructors.

You will learn how to

• Invoke the ModelSim program
• Prepare VHDL and Verilog data for use by ModelSim
• Create and use design Libraries
• Use ModelSim commands to run a simulation
• Create a simple simulation script
• Use ModelSim for batch simulations
• Use the ModelSim Graphical User Interface
• Create a ModelSim project
• Simulate VHDL or Verilog designs
• Simulate mixed VHDL/Verilog designs
