The deadline for Homework 2 has been
pushed to Wednesday, 15 October 2025. Do not
expect further extensions.
9 October 2025, 16:41:58 CDT
If you copied the Homework 2 files before 16:40 on 9 October 2025,
you will not be able to use SimVision to debug your code, though
you will be able to get frustratingly close. Object names
in the SimVision waveform viewer will be marked "No read access".
The problem is due to a missing initialization file.
To fix the problem enter command:
cp /home/faculty/koppel/pub/ee4755/hw/2025/hw02/hdl.var
~/hw02 (all one one line).
Make sure that you just copy that one file.
8 October 2025, 14:33:01 CDT
If you copied the Homework 2 files before 14:30 on 8 October 2025,
there will be an error in one of the assignment files that will result
in an error when attempting to synthesize. (If you copied after 14:30
then you got the fixed version.) The error message will read in part
"could not find an HDL design". There are two ways of fixing this. My
preferred solution is that you edit syn.tcl and replace
occurrences of "_func" with "_proc" (there are just two occurrences).
The other fix is to just copy the file. That can be done using the
command cp /home/faculty/koppel/pub/ee4755/hw/2025/hw02/syn.tcl
~/hw02 (all one one line) and answer yes when it asks you about overwriting a file.
Make sure that you are only copying one file and not clobbering
whatever you did in hw02.v. Does the risk of clobbering scare
you? If so, edit syn.tcl.
