Figure 2. Generating the Design Flow
  1. Start Quartus® Prime software from a Nios® V Command Shell as follows:by running the following command:
    1. Start a Nios® V Command Shell session with the following command:
      <Quartus installation folder>/niosv/bin/niosv-shell
    2. In the Nios® V Command Shell session, start the Quartus® Prime software with the following command:
      <Quartus installation folder>/quartus

    Starting the Quartus® Prime software from a Nios® V Command Shell ensures that the GTS HDMI Intel® FPGA IP has access to the required Nios® V tools.

  2. Create a project targeting the Agilex™ 5 device family and select the desired device.
  3. In the IP Catalog, locate and double-click GTS HDMI Intel® FPGA IP . The New IP Variant or New IP Variation window appears.
  4. Specify a top-level name for your custom IP variation. The parameter editor saves the IP variation settings in a file named <your_ip>.ip.
  5. Click OK. The parameter editor appears.
  6. On the IP tab, configure the desired parameters for both TX and RX. Common parameters are applied to both TX and RX.
  7. On the Design Example tab, select Agilex™ 5 HDMI RX-TX Retransmit.
  8. Select Simulation to generate the testbench, and select Synthesis to generate the hardware design example.

    You must select at least one of these options to generate the design example files. If you select both, the generation time is longer.

  9. For Generate File Format, select Verilog or VHDL.
  10. For Select Board, select the relevant development kit. You can change the target device using Change Target Device parameter if your board revision does not match the grade of the default targeted device. For Agilex™ 5 devices, the target device is set to A5ED065BB32AE6SR0.
  11. Click Generate Example Design.
