1.6. Generating IP Cores ( Intel® Quartus® Prime Standard Edition)

This topic describes parameterizing and generating an IP variation using a legacy parameter editor in the Intel® Quartus® Prime Standard Edition software.
Figure 9. Legacy Parameter Editors


  1. In the IP Catalog (Tools > IP Catalog), locate and double-click the name of the IP core to customize. The parameter editor appears.
  2. Specify a top-level name and output HDL file type for your IP variation. This name identifies the IP core variation files in your project. Click OK. Do not include spaces in IP variation names or paths.
  3. Specify the parameters and options for your IP variation in the parameter editor. Refer to your IP core user guide for information about specific IP core parameters.
  4. Click Finish or Generate (depending on the parameter editor version). The parameter editor generates the files for your IP variation according to your specifications. Click Exit if prompted when generation is complete. The parameter editor adds the top-level .qip file to the current project automatically.
Note: For devices released prior to Intel® Arria® 10 devices, the generated .qip and .sip files must be added to your project to represent IP and Platform Designer systems. To manually add an IP variation generated with legacy parameter editor to a project, click Project > Add/Remove Files in Project and add the IP variation .qip file.
