Environment Set Up for Synopsys VHDL System
Simulator VSS

• Step 1
• a_shehza gtsource /CMC/ENVIRONMENT/synopsys.env
• OR
• a_shehza gtcp /CMC/ENVIRONMENT/synopsys.env
• a_shehza gt source synopsys.env
• OR
• Create the .cshrc file using Nedit as follows
• a_shehza gt nedit .cshrc
• source /CMC/ENVIRONMENT/synopsys.env .

2

• Step-2
• a_shehza gt mkdir Synopsys
• a_shehza gt cd Synopsys
• a_shehza gtSynpsysgt mkdir Code
• a_shehza gtSynosysgt cd Code
• a_shehza gtSynopsysgtCodegt mkdir Work
• a_shehza gtSynopsysgtCodegt cp
  /CMC/ENVIRONMENT/.synopsys_vss.setup .
• a_shehza gtSynopsysgtCodegt nedit
  .synopsys_vss.setup

3

• Contents of .synopsys_vss.setup file should be
• WORK gt DEFAULT
• DEFAULT ./Work
• TIMEBASE NS

4
Creating, Analyzing Simulating VHDL Model

• a_shehza gtSynospsygtCodegt nedit
• Write the VHDL code and save it as .vhd file(it
  must be saved in the Code directory)
• Analyze the code
• a_shehza gt Synopsys gt Code gt vhdlan test.vhd or
• a_shehza gt Synopsys gt Code gt gvan test.vhd
• Simulation of VHDL model
• a_shehza gt Synopsys gt Code gt vhdldbx

5

• For lab 917,919
• gtlog in to LINUX
• Change the server to DEA or FBI
• a_shehza gt ssh dea
• or
• a_shehza gt ssh fbi
• Lab Schedules
• Monday 630 pm 800 pm
• Wednesday 830 pm 1000 pm
• Thursday 830 pm 1000 pm
