Introduction

Bitvis UVVM VVC Framework is a complete framework for making VHDL testbenches for verification of FPGA and ASIC desing. You can download the complete code-base, examples and simulations scripts from the Bitvis web page.

What's in the folders?

The download includes severals folders:

• bitvis_irqc - example VHDL design + testbench
• bitvis_uart - example VHDL design + testbench
• bitvis_vip_sbi - Verification IP(VIP) for simple bus interface(SBI)
• bitvis_vip_uart - VIP for UART TX and RX
• uvvm_util - UVVM utility library - sufficient for simple testbenches
• uvvm_vvc_framework - Framework for more advanced tutorials

IRQC

The provided example VHDL design is a simple interrupt controller with several internal registers, a bus interface and some input and output signals.

Testbench creation

Add test sequencer process

Copy the bitvis_irqc, bitvis_vip_sbi and uvvm_util to another location before editing the files.

Open up Questa/Modelsim

Change directory to the script folder (obviously change to your folder.....):

cd ~/phys321/bitviswiki/bitvis_irqc/script
do compile_and_sim_all.do
