1.2.1. Intel® Quartus® Prime Software

Your kit includes a license for the Development Kit Edition (DKE) of the Intel® Quartus® Prime software (Windows* platform only). For one year, this license entitles you to most of the features of the Subscription Edition (excluding the IP Base Suite).

After tone the DKE license will not be valid and you will not be permitted to use this version of the Intel® Quartus® Prime software. To continue using the Intel® Quartus® Prime software, you should download the free Intel® Quartus® Prime Web edition or purchase a subscription to Intel® Quartus® Prime software. For more information, refer to the Intel® Quartus® Prime Design Software page of the Intel website.

The Intel® Quartus® Prime Development Kit Edition (DKE) software includes the following items:

  • Intel® Quartus® Prime software—The Intel® Quartus® Prime software, including the Platform Designer (Standard) system integration tool, provides a comprehensive environment for network on a chip (NoC) design. The Intel® Quartus® Prime software integrates into nearly any design environment and provides interfaces to industry-standard EDA tools.
  • Intel FPGA IP Library—A library that contains Intel FPGA IP functions. You can evaluate Intel FPGA IP functions by using the Intel FPGA IP Evaluation Mode feature to do the following:
    • Simulate behavior of an Intel FPGA IP function within your system.
    • Verify functionality of your design, and quickly and easily evaluate its size and speed.
    • Generate time-limited device programming files for designs that include Intel FPGA IP functions.
    • Program a device and verify your design in hardware.

The Intel FPGA IP Evaluation Mode hardware evaluation feature is an evaluation tool for prototyping only. You must purchase a license to use an Intel FPGA IP function in production.

For more information about the Intel FPGA IP Evaluation Mode, refer to AN 320: Using Intel® FPGA IP Evaluation Mode.

Nios® II Embedded Design Suite (EDS)—A full-featured set of tools that allows you to develop embedded software for the Nios® II processor, which you can include in your Intel FPGA designs.
