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

ep_g1x8_tb/ep_g1x8_tb/altera_pcie_a10_tbed_140/sim/

.

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.

Directory

Description

//synth

Includes the top-level HDL file for the Hard IP for

PCI Express.

//sim/

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,

altpcie_

monitor__dlhip_tlp_file_log.log

in your simulation directory.
