MachX03 library error in Active-hdl for fpga simulation

976 Views Asked by At

edit: I just reinstalled lattice diamond and the updates, Active-hdl was installed automatically, but the simulation still gives me the same error. when i change library machXO3; use machXO3.all; to library machXO2; use machXO2.all; it compiles..

I'm trying to write a test bench for a simple implementation of OSCH, but I am not being able to get the testbench to work.

I managed to get it to work a few months ago but I lost the file I was working on.

this is the vhdl code I have:

library  ieee;
use  ieee.std_logic_1164.all;

-- For Main Clock --
library machXO3;
use machXO3.all;
--------------------

entity Clock is
     port (stdby : in std_logic;
           osc_int: out std_logic
           );
end Clock;

architecture Clock_behav of Clock is

    COMPONENT OSCH
    -- synthesis translate_off
        GENERIC (NOM_FREQ: string := "2.56");
    -- synthesis translate_on
        PORT (STDBY : IN std_logic;
              OSC : OUT std_logic
                );
    END COMPONENT;

begin

    Clock: OSCH
    -- synthesis translate_off
    GENERIC MAP( NOM_FREQ => "2.56" )
    -- synthesis translate_on
    PORT MAP (  STDBY => stdby,
                OSC => osc_int
    );

end Clock_behav;

This is the testbench, most of it was generated by lattice-diamond I only added stdby <= '0';

LIBRARY ieee;
USE ieee.std_logic_1164.ALL;
USE ieee.numeric_std.ALL;

ENTITY testbench IS
END testbench;

ARCHITECTURE behavior OF testbench IS 

    COMPONENT Clock
    PORT(
        stdby : IN std_logic;          
        osc_int : OUT std_logic
        );
    END COMPONENT;

    SIGNAL stdby :  std_logic;
    SIGNAL osc_int :  std_logic;

BEGIN

-- Please check and add your generic clause manually
    uut: Clock PORT MAP(
        stdby => stdby,
        osc_int => osc_int
    );
    stdby <= '0';

-- *** Test Bench - User Defined Section ***
   tb : PROCESS
   BEGIN
      --wait; -- will wait forever
   END PROCESS;
-- *** End Test Bench - User Defined Section ***

END;

Lattice-diamond is telling me that everything is okay, but when I run everything in Active-hdl, to simulate, I get these errors:

# Error: COMP96_0059: Main.vhd : (5, 1): Library "machXO3" not found.
# Error: COMP96_0078: Main.vhd : (6, 5): Unknown identifier "machXO3".

Looking at C:\lscc\diamond\3.10_x64\active-hdl\vlib\, there seems to be no machXO3 library, but there is a machxo, machxo2 and a machxo3l library. changing library machXO3; use machXO3.all; to library machXO3l; use machXO3l.all; to making some small modifications to the test bench, everything seems to work out fine.

    -- Notes: 
    -- 1) This testbench template has been automatically generated using types
    -- std_logic and std_logic_vector for the ports of the unit under test.
    -- Lattice recommends that these types always be used for the top-level
    -- I/O of a design in order to guarantee that the testbench will bind
    -- correctly to the timing (post-route) simulation model.
    -- 2) To use this template as your testbench, change the filename to any
    -- name of your choice with the extension .vhd, and use the "source->import"
    -- menu in the ispLEVER Project Navigator to import the testbench.
    -- Then edit the user defined section below, adding code to generate the 
    -- stimulus for your design.
    -- 3) VHDL simulations will produce errors if there are Lattice FPGA library 
    -- elements in your design that require the instantiation of GSR, PUR, and
    -- TSALL and they are not present in the testbench. For more information see
    -- the How To section of online help.
