Introduction to Quartus Prime

An Overview of FPGA and CPLD


Design with Intel's Quartus Prime
Software
What is Quartus?
• Quartus Prime is a software tool developed by
Intel for designing, testing, and deploying
FPGA and CPLD solutions.

• Key Features:
• - Integrated development environment (IDE)
for HDL design
• - Simulation and debugging tools
• - Support for Intel FPGA devices
Applications of Quartus
• Areas of Use:
• - Digital signal processing (DSP)
• - Embedded systems design
• - High-speed data communication

• Industries:
• - Telecommunications
• - Automotive
• - Consumer electronics
Key Features of Quartus
• - User-friendly IDE
• - Support for VHDL, Verilog, and SystemVerilog
• - Built-in synthesis and optimization tools
• - Timing analysis with TimeQuest
• - Integration with ModelSim for simulation
Quartus Workflow
• 1. Create Project: Define project settings and
target device
• 2. Design Entry: Write HDL code or use
graphical design tools
• 3. Synthesis: Convert design into logic
• 4. Simulation: Verify functionality using
testbenches
• 5. Implementation: Map design to FPGA
resources
• 6. Programming: Deploy to physical hardware
Key Tools in Quartus
• - Block Editor: Visual design creation
• - Platform Designer: System integration
• - TimeQuest Timing Analyzer: For timing
analysis
• - SignalTap II Logic Analyzer: For real-time
debugging
Getting Started with Quartus
• - Install Quartus Prime from Intel's website
• - Choose a compatible FPGA development
board
• - Follow tutorials or online documentation for
basic projects
Example Project
• Design: LED Blinker

• Steps:
• - Write Verilog/VHDL code
• - Simulate behavior
• - Program onto FPGA board
Initial Development
- Quartus was developed by Altera Corporation in the late 1990s.
- Aimed to simplify FPGA and CPLD design for engineers.
- Became a leader in the FPGA design tool market with features like synthesis and simulation.
Key Milestones
- **2000**: Quartus II launched with better workflows.
- **2005-2010**: Timing analysis, incremental compilation, multi-core support.
- **2012**: ARM-based SoC FPGAs and OpenCL integration.
Intel Acquisition
- **2015**: Intel acquired Altera for $16.7 billion.
- Rebranded Quartus as Quartus Prime, integrating it into Intel's ecosystem.
- Pro Edition was introduced for high-performance FPGA designs.
Modern Features
- Machine learning-based optimization for synthesis.
- High-Level Synthesis (HLS) integration.
- Enhanced support for PCIe and high-speed interfaces.
