This project can boot the Bios and MSDOS within Modelsim and create VGA output signals.</p> <p>Of course the soc project also uses the microcode memory file which we build before. The test bench and simulation script for this project is located in bench/soc.</p> <p>Instead of running tests we will now boot the Bios and MSDOS.

The simulation results are written to project/soc/simulation/modelsim/ directory. The following files are created by the simulation:</p> <ul> <li>runlog.txt contains executed opcodes and register values</li> <li>memlog.txt contains memory access info</li> <li>vgalog.txt the vga signals (only 1 bit per color)</li> </ul> <p>OsocDasm can be used to add assembler mnemonics to the memlog.txt simulation results. VGASim can be used to produce a graphical image from the vgalog.txt signals.</p></div>Roy van KotenTue, 16 Sep 2014 21:11:31 -0000https://sourceforge.netdaddb30b028b6d0bc55245665f64ab2a5144e9dc
