2.4. Step 4: Configuring Signal Tap Logic Analyzer

In this step, you configure Signal Tap Logic Analyzer for each revision.
Revision Signal Tap File Name
blinking_led_slow stp_slow.stp
blinking_led_default stp_default.stp
blinking_led_empty stp_empty.stp

Repeat the following steps for each revision:

  1. Set the current revision in the Intel® Quartus® Prime GUI.
  2. Open the Signal Tap file that corresponds to the set revision.
  3. Tap signals in the implementation persona.
  4. Configure data acquisition, including the acquisition clock and storage parameters.
  5. Set the trigger conditions for recording data.
  6. Save your changes before you continue to compiling the design.
