Mistaking a component or module name for an instance label

Another common error is to specify the component or module name rather than the instance label. For example, the following invocation is wrong for the above testbenches:

vsim -sdfmax /testbench/myasic=myasic.sdf testbench 

This results in the following error message:

ERROR: myasic.sdf:
The design does not have an instance named '/testbench/myasic'.
