Hello,
I instantiated a true differential output buffer and when I try to simulate I get the following:# Top level modules:# altera_gpio_lite# End time: 08:57:10 on Jan 31,2018, Elapsed time: 0:00:00# Errors: 0, Warnings: 0# vlog -sv "/home/swinchen/quartus/robot_board/output_buffer_sim/altera_gpio_lite/mentor/altera_gpio_lite.sv" -work output_buffer# Model Technology ModelSim - Intel FPGA Edition vlog 10.5b Compiler 2016.10 Oct 5 2016# Start time: 08:57:10 on Jan 31,2018# vlog -reportprogress 300 -sv /home/swinchen/quartus/robot_board/output_buffer_sim/altera_gpio_lite/mentor/altera_gpio_lite.sv -work output_buffer # ** Fatal: Unexpected signal: 11.# ** Error: /home/swinchen/quartus/robot_board/output_buffer_sim/altera_gpio_lite/mentor/altera_gpio_lite.sv(38): in protected region# End time: 08:57:10 on Jan 31,2018, Elapsed time: 0:00:00# Errors: 2, Warnings: 0# ** Error: /opt/intelFPGA_lite/17.1/modelsim_ase/linuxaloem/vlog failed.# Error in macro ./robot_board_run_msim_rtl_vhdl.do line 22# /opt/intelFPGA_lite/17.1/modelsim_ase/linuxaloem/vlog failed.# while executing# "vlog -sv "/home/swinchen/quartus/robot_board/output_buffer_sim/altera_gpio_lite/mentor/altera_gpio_lite.sv" -work output_buffer"# # stdin: <EOF>
Does anyone know a way to fix this? I tried to manually instantiate a fiftyfivenm_io_obuf but I could not find documentation on what the seriesterminationcontrol input was. Thanks, - Sam

What do you want to achieve? I doubt that there is much use in simulating a differential IO buffer. Hardware features like serial termination are not modelled in functional simulation.

--- Quote Start --- What do you want to achieve? I doubt that there is much use in simulating a differential IO buffer.

My test bench simulates a component inside my design. Just having the differential buffer in my top-level structural design file is enough to cause this error.
