Testing of Design

Go to verilog/dv/BrqRV_EB1/ directory

Set the GCC_PATH environment variable.
Set the PDK_PATH environment variable.
Copy the given program hex file into uart.hex.
run the make commad for RTL simulation
run the SIM=GL make command for netlist simulation

Note: Dont forget to add 0x00000FFF instruction in the end of the uart.hex to stop the uart transmission if you are using your own codes.
