Did I need to set a proper pin assignment if I running a simulation ?

[fpga_nick]

I am trying to run a design example simulation for AGIB027R29A1E2VR3, F-tile.
Quartus version v23.3 , Questasim 2023-2.

But the target devkit with proper pin selection only available for F-series devkit - non I-series devkit. If I select F-series devkit, the simulation run well.

While I select "NONE" as my device is targeted  AGIB027R29A1E2VR3, the simulation fail in "ld_debug".

Question - 

1. Did I need to set a proper pin assignment if I running a simulation ?
2. If the answer is YES in first question, Can I use the .qsf pin mapping from F-series F-tile and plug directly I-series F-tile ?

   • I try , no2 where I use the .qsf from F-series F-tile , plug in to I-series F-tile.
     BUT the compilation fail . appreciate if someone can help to advise

RTL simulation is used to check your design functionality. Pin assignment is not required. You only need to run the Analysis and Synthesis successfully.

You may try the example design provided in the user guide to further understand the simulation flow.

Additionally, could you file a new forum case for your follow up question on the compilation error message?

This is for tracking purpose. Btw, the screenshot resolution is too low to view.

Any update on this?

Do you able to resolve your simulation problem?
