When you specify multiple .spd files, the

ip-make-simscript

utility generates a single simulation script

containing all required simulation information. The default value of

TOP_LEVEL_NAME

is the

TOP_LEVEL_NAME

defined in the IP core or Qsys .spd file. If this is not the top-level instance in your

design, specify the top-level instance of your testbench or design.
You can set appropriate variables in the script or edit the variable assignments directly in the script. If the

simulation script is a Tcl file that can be sourced in the simulator, set the variables before sourcing the

script. If the simulation script is a shell script, pass in the variables as command-line arguments to shell

script.
To run

ip-make-simscript

, type the following at the command prompt:

\quartus\sopc_builder\bin\ip-make-simscript

The following tables lists some of the options available with this utility.

Description

Status

--spd=

Describes the list of compiled files and

memory model hierarchy. If your design

includes multiple IP cores or Qsys systems

that include .spd files, use this option for each

file. For example:
