Gowin Simulation
ali_asadzadeh:
Hi,
I have made a board for GW2AR-LV18QN part, And every thing is working as expected and I have written UART,SPI, PWM peripherals and have tested them successfully.
Now I want to use the IP cores, for example the FIFO one, The problem for now is how can I simulate my design with the Gowin IO cores, using Modelsim etc...
I have found a folder named simlib in the installation folder,
I wonder if anyone in here has done simulation with gowin IP on modelsim or another simulation software, is it possible? how?
Any tips would be highly appreciated.

Does any body use Gowin FPGA's in here?
The tools generate a SDF file, can it be used for simulation? how?

Assuming that Gowin is no different from any other FPGA vendor --
In addition to the SDF file, the Gowin tools should provide a VHDL or Verilog model of the design which replaces your RTL/behavioral code with primitives. So you bring the new model and the SDF into your simulation tool, which needs to be able to do such back-annotated simulation. You use the same test bench as with your original design.
ModelSim and Aldec can do such simulation. I think that ghdl can do it, too.

thanks, Do you have any web link or tutorial on how to do it?

Did you resolve problem with IP simulation?
