The simulation includes the following stages:
• Link training
• Configuration
• DMA reads and writes
• Root Port to Endpoint memory reads and writes
Disabling Scrambling to Interpret TLPs at the PIPE Interface
1. Go to
.
2. Open altpcietb_bfm_top_rp.v.
3. Locate the assignment for
test_in[2:1]
. Set
test_in[2] = 1
and
test_in[1] = 0
. Changing
test_in[2] = 1
disables data scrambling on the PIPE interface.
4. Save altpcietb_bfm_top_rp.v.
Generating Quartus II Synthesis Files
1. On the Generate menu, select Generate HDL.
2. For Create HDL design files for synthesis, select Verilog.
You can leave the default settings for all other items.
3. Click Generate to generate files for Quartus II synthesis.
4. Click Finish when the generation completes.
Understanding the Files Generated

Description
Includes the top-level HDL file for the Hard IP for
PCI Express.
Includes the HDL source files and scripts for the
simulation testbench.
For a more detailed listing of the directories and files the Quartus II software generates, refer to Files
Generated for Altera IP Cores in Compiling the Design in the Qsys Design Flow.
Understanding Simulation Log File Generation
Starting with the Quartus II 14.0 software release, simulation automatically creates a log file,
