IPCM question?

archive
archive over 18 years ago

Hi,
 I have got the IPCM document from Cadence website. And I have two questions.
1.         When reading the SV URM tutorial, I am interested in vr_xbus/sv_module/vr_xbus_bus_monitor.sv
But I could not find vr_xbus/sv_module/ under /IPCM601/libraries/urm_lib/sv_mb_ex_lib/
Can you tell me where can I get the file?
2.         And it seems IPCM use bfm_if() to do transaction layer communication, in which document can I got the prototype of bfm_if?
 Thanks!

Best regards,
Davy

    Davy,

    The bus monitor file should be right there, unless your installation of IPCM is broken. Can you please show the result of "ls -R" under your $IPCM_HOME directory?

    As for the BFM interface - you can use any of its instantiations as a template. For example, look at the file vr_xbus/sv_module/vr_xbus_master_interface.sv.

    How to download the IPCM document and libraries from Cadence website? We are a IUS5.83 users. Is a separate license required for IPCM?

    Please inform.

    Thanks.

    Hello Sarthy.

    You will need to get a [b]free[/b] [i]installation[/i] licence from your local Cadence AE or sales office.
    This is only required to install the product, no runtime licence is required once IPCM is installed.

    You can download IPCM using InstallScape - look for the product called IPCM61.
    You should ensure your licences are set up before starting InstallScape, because the installation process for IPCM checks for the IPCM licence.

    If you have a SourceLink account, then you can read the IPCM docs online here: http://myipcm.cadence.com/
    The login and password are the same ones you use for SourceLink. And if you don't have a SourceLink account, go to http://sourcelink.cadence.com/ and sign up, because this gives you online access to the support database, product downloads email alerts for new versions etc.

    Regards,
    Steve.
