IPXACT and UVM with VCS

[pradeey]

Hi,

Does anyone know if VCS has an in-built parser that is capable of parsing spirit file (format generated and compatible with IP-XACT) and generate UVM register files which is compatible with UVM_REG of RAL in UVM1.1 or later?

Note : I know that VCS has a ralgen functionality which is capable of parsing RALF files and generate the required UVM register files..

Since, we already have IP-XACT spirit format of register definition available and ready, wondering if we can use VCS to directly generate UVM register files instead of re-coding the entire register definition in synopsys .ralf format.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Pradeep

Hi,

Yes, $VCS_HOME/bin/ralgen supports RALF which is a TCL format and IPXACT which is an XML format.

i.e

ralgen -uvm –ipxact <ipxact-file>

You will get more complete responses by emailing vcs_support@synopsys.com
