I cannot monitor the fiftyfivenm_lcell_comb signal when simulating a .vo file of a design targeting MAX® 10 in ModelSim® - Intel FPGA Edition.

  • Updated

The ModelSim - Intel FPGA Edition that accompanies v16.1, v17.0, and v17.1 cannot monitor signals related to fiftyfivenm_lcell_comb.
This is due to the fact that the correct libraries are not loaded.

As a workaround, please add the following line to your script file and use the simulation library provided in the
Quartus® Prime installation folder instead of the PreCompiled Library in ModelSim - Intel FPGA Edition Please use the simulation libraries provided in the Quartus® Prime installation folder at .

vlog - vlog01compat -work fiftyfivenm_ver {<install>/quartus/eda/sim_lib/mentor/fiftyfivenm_atoms_ncrypt.v}

This issue has been resolved in the ModelSim-Intel FPGA Edition that accompanies Quartus® Prime v18.0 and later.
