How to simulate Each Verilog Modules

if your os is windows, then install Xilinx ISE Design Suite. However, Xilinx is not available in Mac.

installation for Mac

to install icarus-verilog,

brew install icarus-verilog

to install gtkwave, you just google "gtkwave" and download it anyway.

icarus-verilog

for compile verilog files,

iverilog -o <output file name> <module.v> <tb_module.v>

you should add below codes in your testbench to make vcd files.

initial begin
	$dumpfile("fileName.vcd");
	$dumpvars(0,ModuleNameOfTestBench);
end

and then, you have to make waveform file(.vcd file).

vvp <output file name you made above>

gtkwave

just double click on your waveform file(.vcd file) you made above.
