Step -1
Ambit Synthesis
To run the Silicon Ensemble, we have to generate the ".def" and ".adb" files which will be used in the automatic place and route. To generate the files, we have to run the ambit synthesis on the verilog code of the 8 bit counter.
For running the ambit synthesis, follow the steps one through five as given in Lab#4. After all the steps are done, type the following commands in the command window of the Ambit synthesis tool.
pks_shell[10]> write_def cnt8bit.def
pks_shell[11]> write_adb cnt8bit.adb
Exit the Ambit synthesis tool. Proceed to step 2 where we will invoke Silicon Ensemble.
