generating vcd file

hello
I am trying to generate a vcd file in verilog test fixture to get dynamic power value. I have implemented my design and then I have created a new source in verilog test fixture. I have added these code lines at the end of the test code(before endmodule):
initial begin
$dumpfile ("node_1_vcd.vcd");
$dumpvars();
in_flit_w = 18'b110001111000110100;
ready_n = 1;
#20
in_flit_w = 18'b010010111000110100;
ready_n = 0;
#1000 $dumpoff;
end
now when I want to simulate behavioral model this error appears:
ERROR:Simulator:1026 - The switch -hwcosim_clock must be specified for hardware cosimulation.
what sould I do?
thank in advance

Kian,
I'm not sure what simulator you are using, or why it's giving you the bug about a lack of a hardware cosimulation clock. I do know that you can create a VCD file from a Verilator simulation using the techniques outlined here. I do it all the time. Feel free to check out my wbuart project for an example. There, you'll find Verilator simulations of hello world, a dump of the Gettysburg address over a simulated serial port, as well as a simple line testing program that waits for a line in only to repeat it back out. Dan P.S. I tend to get a security warning when creating an http: link to zipcpu.com. Just make sure you connect via http: (insecure) for now and that should dismiss the warning. |
