working environment:
Linux
Steps
- Open RTL project:
open quartus under Linux:
quartus
open project file (file that ends with .qpt) - Signal tap II
Tool -> singal Tap II
- Adding clock
signal configuration -> name:clock -> filter: Signal Tap II Pre-synthesis -> list - Adding signal that you want to test
double click in the window, adding signals and hit ok
filter: pre synthesis - Hit save, xxx.stp file will be generated
- Synthesizing the project, generating bit file “.sof”
- export your bit file to FPGA
- open signal Tap II analyzer
- Hit “hardware” to connect to your JTAG
- Prob the posdege of the signal that you want to trigger the test
- Programming your bit file on Altera FPGA and start testing(mine FPGA is from Altera Arria V)
