Does the simulator have the capability to save the results of one or more outputs into a text file?

Solution

Yes.

• In the GUI mode: Open the appropriate waveform file and then choose appropriate format from menu File | Export | Waveforms

• In the Batch mode: Use the the appropriate command to convert like asdb2lst, asdb2vcd etc.

The following text formats are supported:

• WAVES-compliant test vector files (*.vec). This format is briefly referred to as VEC.

• Regular VHDL code with process statements generating equivalent signal waveforms. This format is briefly referred to as VHS.

• Verilog Initial Block format (VER)

• Value Change Dump and Extended Value Change Dump format (VCD)

• Tabular format (EXP)

• List file format (LST)

• Chip Express Test Vector format (CTV)

Files of the VEC, VHS, VER, or VHR format can be used during the generation of HDL test benches.
