ISE 10.1

Hi,

I am using ISE10.1 and trying to generate the waveform test bench for
my VHDL code. Now, the test bech waveform editor has " Initial timing
and Clock Wizard". The wizard has parameters such as Clock low time
and Clock high time, Input setup time , output valid delay etc.

My question is that Does "Input setup time" mean the Data setup time
before the rising edge of the clock and does "Output Valid time" mean
the "hold time" ? Please advice!

Regards,
John

Hi,

I am getting the following error. Do you know anything about it.

ERROR:HDLCompiler:607 - "USB_Writer_tb.vhw" Line 36. Multiple
declarations of unsigned included via multiple use clauses; none are
made directly visible


The self generating test bench option is generating the VHDL TEST
BENCH code but it has the above error. The test bench generated by
the ISE10.1 is as follows

Hi,

I commented std_logic_arith and getting the following errors

ERROR:HDLCompiler:615 - "USB_Writer.ant" Line 120. Near write ; 9

Hi,

The ISE is looking for .ant file and pointing the errors in .ant file.
It happens when I try to generate the "Self checking test bench". The

HI,

I did change those lines but now the ISE is crashing whenever I try to
run "Self Checking test bench"

Thanks

John
