Debugging Designs

Compiling Simulation Libraries

Simulation libraries must be compiled for third-party simulators when running outside of

the Vivado IDE.

Vivado Design Suite User Guide - Logic Simulation

(UG900)

[Ref 7]

Next Step

If the debug suggestions listed previously do not resolve the issue, open a support case to

have the appropriate Xilinx expert assist with the issue.

To create a technical support case in WebCase, see the Xilinx website at:

www.xilinx.com/support/clearexpress/websupport.htm

Items to include when opening a case:

• Detailed description of the issue and results of the steps listed previously.
• Attach a VCD or WLF dump of the simulation.

To discuss possible solutions, use the Xilinx User Community:

forums.xilinx.com/xlnx/

Hardware Debug

Hardware issues can range from link bring-up to problems seen after hours of testing. This

section provides debug steps for common issues. The Vivado lab tools are a valuable

resource to use in hardware debug and the signal names mentioned in the following

individual sections can be probed using the Vivado lab tools for debugging the specific

problems. Many of these common issue can also be applied to debugging design

simulations.

General Checks

Ensure that all the timing constraints for the core were met during Place and Route.

• Does it work in timing simulation? If problems are seen in hardware but not in timing

simulation, this could indicate a PCB issue.

• Ensure that all clock sources are clean. If using DCMs in the design, ensure that all

DCMs have obtained lock by monitoring the

locked

port.
