An error occurred in the build of the Xilinx System Generator while execute FPGA_SetUp model for dSPACE

I have a SIMULINK code which I am trying to ini file for DS5203 of dSPACE. Whenever I try to execute I get an error in the build of the Xilinx System Generator.

------------------------------------------------------------
RTI Build Error
An error occurred in the build of the Xilinx System Generator.

Error in compiling/generating the netlist.

thanks for all.

Hi,

From the first error it looks like, there is error in compiling and generation of netlist.

It means the Verilog / VHDL file you are compiling is not synthesizable i.e. it cannot be realized on the hardware (FPGA Board in this case). There are certain elements in Verilog code which compiles (Eg : Delay elements) but are not synthesizable.

Dspace can shows RTI build error when the design fails to meet timing requirement. Check for negative slack if any.

If any error persists it may result in the failure of the system build.

You can try using hdl coder for synthesizable code generation and re run the design.

For more info on hdl coder refer to this.

Hope it helps !
