Re: [myhdl-list] Simulation control

[Juan P. C. <jp...@gm...>]

I apologize for the confusion. I'm hoping to do do this with code, not a
debugger. I'm trying to create a mixed signal simulator exchanging data
between ngspice and myhdl.

I would like to be able to simulate until signal X toggles or changes, get
the time, run spice until this time is reached, update signals in myhdl and
spice, resume myhdl simulation, etc.

Sometimes the clock comes from spice, I detect the change in output from a
comparator, stop the simulation, and must toggle the corresponding signal
in the digital side and resume the digital.

I couldn't find any fine controls for the simulation in MyHDL. SimPy, that
looks quite similar in terms of using generators, seem to have "simulate
until" kind of controls. I wonder if this is already possible or if someone
had tried to implement such functionality.

Thanks,

JP
