13. ChipScope results are analyzed in the waveform window as shown in
Figure 25
. The
waveforms may be easier to read if the discrete signals are removed after they are renamed. To
share the results with remote colleagues, save the results in the waveform window as a Value
Change Dump (vcd) file. The vcd files can be translated and viewed in most simulators. The
vcd2wlf
translator in Modeltech reads a vcd file and generates a wlf file for viewing in the
Modeltech waveform viewer. The vcd file can be opened in the Cadence Design System, Inc.
Simvision design tool by selecting File
