Help with Circuit in Quartis Prime

For this lab, we were suppose to create a 3 bit-bidirectional shift register and implement the design into Quartis Prime and generate a waveform. I was able to build the circuit on the software, but we never learned how to implement a waveform that was like this. I've looked online for help and the only thing I got was writing VHDL code for it.

 

Is there a way to generate a waveform without using VHDL?

Hi James,


In order to simulate .bdf file, you have to convert the design into VHDL or Verilog HDL format.

Check this: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/programmable/articles/000078436.html


For standard and lite version, you can use this feature File->Create/Update->Create HDL Design File from Current File to generate HDL file for your .bdf file. This feature is not supported in pro version.

Hi James,


Sorry for confusion. I think you can straight create waveform for bdf file using Simulation Waveform Editor. Follow this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_ksjHd6sY0

Hi James,


Do you have any further update or Should I consider that case to be closed?
